Pros
EchoStar was a good place to work. Flexible hours, casual dress code, and decent pay. Not great benefits, but they could be worse.
Cons
If you accept a job with EchoStar, make it temporary! Keep looking! After almost a decade of subscriber loss at Dish we knew there was a possibility that there would be layoffs but we assumed they'd give us a decent severance. The laugh was on us. We got 2 months advance notice (minimum required by Georgia law), career transition training, and a kick in the tail to all who had as much as 20 years with a multi-billion dollar company! Shameful.
