Pros
- Lots of shifts available to choose from, including many non traditional shifts like four 10s and three 12s that give you a lot of flexibility. - Upper management actually listens to employee input and makes changes accordingly. Not only that, but changes are made quickly. - Dish is working hard to focus on customer service and putting their money where their mouth is. It's a business that backs their goals with immediate, tangible rewards and recognition. - An achievable bonus structure keeps you engaged and challenged on a day to day basis. - A big company with lots of opportunity to move around and/or move up; a great place to build experience. - Great, affordable dental plans, 401k contribution matching (up to $2500/yr), and tuition reimbursement (up to $2000/yr).
Cons
- Irregular shift changes on short notice: shifts get cancelled during slow times with no opportunity to make up the hours, then during busy times, there is mandatory overtime. - You can ask three different people the same question regarding business policies and get three different answers. Communication is muddled, which is worrisome when your bonus depends on the accuracy of the answers you get. - Once your out of training, career development is on your own time. If you don't speak up, you may end up staying in the same job for a long time. - The medical benefits are expensive and don't provide very much coverage.
