Pluspunten

I struggle to find anything positive to say

Minpunten

they micromanage every word you say on the phone, every minute of when you clock in, clock out, take your breaks, and more. Furthermore, they pushed us so hard to the point of frustrating people to tears on the line with us, to keep them from canceling an outdated antiquated service when people wanted to go for streaming instead. The management have no life experience and no management experience, and the amount of nepotism and petty behavior amongst these children managers was bitter, scorekeeping, chastising, power-play games, and massively stressful and unhealthy. senior managers are very stressed to make numbers and that rolls downhill exponentially. I had to check in with my manager with each rejection the customer would want to legitimately put forward when trying to put that customer onto a new contract. Furthermore, there are individual agents that cheat the system with the help of management to make excessive amounts of money. There was a lot of drug use, sabotaging, under the table favors and more. It was a very toxic environment. The turnover rate was somewhere close to about 80 or 90% within the first two months for agents. And very understandably.

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.
