Pros
Smart, hard-working people. The product is also top-notch and always at the forefront.
Cons
You are overworked, given poor benefits, and treated unfairly to your peers. No sick time, minimal holidays off, 100% 401k vesting after 5 years, just strictly 3 weeks of PTO in which you are forced to take when it snows and travel is not recommended instead of working remotely like a few select individuals are allowed. DISH is supposed to be a wireless company but yet they have a very old school culture that monitors employee's access like a babysitter. Your manager is notified if you arrive or leave beyond specific times, but then again a few select individuals have a nearly identical role and are allowed to work 100% remote. With that said, the majority of peers are very talented and intelligent, some of the best at what they do.
