Pros

I have worked for dish network for almost two years as a field tech. The goals they set are hard, but they are attainable. They start with low pay, but there is a reason for this. Would you pay someone to not do there job? They give you tools, a vehicle, and clothes to do your job. I worked as a commercial and industrial electrician for 6 years before this job and there was not one company that ever would do these things. There is steady work with great benefits I never worked for an electric company that gave me 2 weeks of vacation off the bat. They would give me a week at most and then beg me to cash it in. Then they would lay me off due to lack of work. If you do your job you self manage yourself. Its an outside job. You see several new places in one day. Managers do reward you for taking pride.

Kontras

You never know what time your getting off. It does make the day go fast. The medical insurance could use some work. (there is not many companies out there that don't have this problem)

Pros

Good middle management and compensation. Lots of opportunities to learn from plenty of smart people.

Kontras

Disclaimer -This is all water cooler hearsay and opinion. During the two years I was there the bill came due on being penny wise and dollar dumb over the years. A great example is Sling. Dish beat basically everyone to market but Netflix with streaming and was the first platform to offer live TV via stream (which YouTube TV still uses as a selling point). What happened? Dish paid the original engineers to build it and then balked at paying them to document and maintain it. Same deal with the cyber security team. After years of expecting security engineers to do exceptional work shorthanded for middling compensation eventually they had none. It was all put on the security manager, who had a heart attack after repeatedly requesting support. He understandably did not return. Not much later one of the core systems was ransomed, and the company fell out of the fortune 500. Despite being in the middle of dealing with the consequences of those decisions leadership was doing it all again with the mobile network build out.

Hearing that you found value in our middle management and compensation, as well as the chance to learn from the talented individuals on our teams, is encouraging. We appreciate you recognizing those aspects of your time with us. On the other hand, the historical context and concerns you shared regarding executive decision-making, infrastructure maintenance, and resource allocation are deeply concerning. Maintaining a stable, secure, and well-supported environment for our workforce is of the utmost importance, and we take feedback regarding employee well-being and operational decisions seriously. We are continually working to strengthen our operations and better support our teams across all business units. Because this review references a sensitive medical situation alongside organizational challenges, we would welcome the opportunity to hear more about your perspective. Please consider reaching out to our team directly at peopleoperations@dish.com so we can learn more.
