Pluspunten

You can easily get promoted if you want and show your dedication for a long time (unfortunately your knowledge and skills often don't matter).

Minpunten

lack of feedback, support, you are simply a tool (easily replaceable). Comparably Salary is extremely low. Every year it becomes only worse. HR doesn't even try to show that they are here to protect and help employees, only the company (Charlie himself). Most of the management lacks ANY education (have you ever seen director with HS diploma). No Personal skills what so ever. If you are greeted in the morning, you should consider yourself lucky. If you didn't get yelled that means you did great... (doing work good or satisfactory is not even considered completing your work). Either you have to do a fantastic job (that you won't even get a thank you but won't get yelled) or you failed it. Management is not consistent with their goals and guidelines. Attrition level is over 130%. Overall moral is close to 0. People dream of being laid off.

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.
