DISH reviews

Did a contract role with Dish and found it to be so intolerable that I quit after 1 day. Not kidding. They had lunch set out for new hires. They were very clear with me that I was NOT to touch the lunch food because I was a contract role They didn't know where to put me on day 1, so they gave me a desk with old coffee cups and old food on it. I was forced to listen to small talk for hours about how Dish was the next big thing (Felt like a fever dream) My manager could not have cared less to have a conversation with me. The language barrier between the people I was supposed to be learning from was so bad that I would ask them to repeat themselves 4 or 5 times each time they said something. Eventually I just gave up and started nodding my head. A dying company with awful culture. Avoid at all costs. The salary they offered me was 45% more than what I was making, and that still wasn't enough to convince me to stay more than 1 day.

Spent over a year applying here — hundreds of roles. Didn’t matter if I was overqualified, underqualified, or a near-perfect match… the outcome was always the same: instant rejection. At this point, I’m impressed by the efficiency of saying “no” without actually engaging. It really makes you wonder — is this a hiring process, or just a well-designed illusion of one? Because from the outside, it feels like roles are already spoken for before they’re even posted. The job description just seems like a formality while the real requirement is “must already know someone on the inside.” If that’s the case, it would honestly be more transparent (and respectful) to just say: “Applications welcome, but referrals only.” Would save candidates months of time, effort, and false hope. Not sure what’s more frustrating — the constant rejections, or the realization that merit doesn’t even get a seat at the table here.
