Pluspunten

At one point in time maybe there were some pros working for DISH, but that is gone.

Minpunten

I was hired as an operations manager and the onboarding was horrific. There was no structure and no leadership in place for guidance. I was asked to take over an office that had been left with out management for 4 months. It was a complete mess. I stuck around to make change. I caught on quick that this company is ran by command and control leadership. Some of their top executives are absolute lunatics. They would display theatrical moments of aggression, intimidation, and disrespect in meetings. Trying their best to instill fear to get you to do what they want. This isn’t 2000 anymore. You are not an operations manager because you are demanded to have answers for constant reporting, meetings, and situations. They literally required their operations manager to be prospects and go find electricians to see if we can do business for them installing EV. There was no commission for that either. This company doesn’t care about its people. The put that on full display this past week. They are laying off tenured employees (at all levels), closing offices, and terminating employees that are on performance improvement plans because it’s the best decision for the company. That is complete garbage. They have no loyalty, no trust, and no future. Employees are jumping ship at a rapid pace. If you drink the koolaid they want than you will say DISH is “tightening” up and making “difficult decisions”. This company is going bankrupt. Command and control will never have a future. Do not apply here. If you are still employed with this company than you need to start looking for a new job/career ASAP.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.
