Dish Network CEO says label as America’s worst company to work for is “ridiculous”

Dish CEO Joe Clayton said the company is conducting an employee survey for the first time.
Douglas County-based Dish Network has been branded as the worst company to work for in America.
The investment news and commentary site 24/7 Wall St. based its analysis on employee reviews submitted to glassdoor.com, where 228 out of 355 reviewers, or 64 percent, said they were either “dissatisfied” or “very dissatisfied” with the satellite-TV provider.
“You cannot move up in the company unless you brown nose,” one person states. “Job performance does not matter.”
Another one says that employees are “usually forced into mandatory overtime, which does not work well if you have a family.”
Dish chief executive Joe Clayton called the label “ridiculous.”
“To say this is the worst place to work in America – I’ve worked in a lot worse places. This isn’t one of them,” Clayton said in an interview at Dish’s headquarters. “To (brand) us with that total statement is ridiculous.”
Dish is conducting an internal employee survey for the first time, asking each of the company’s more than 30,000 employees, “How is our team working?”
“I want a benchmark that I can track as we go forward,” Clayton said. “This is from me all the way down to the person who cuts the grass.”
After the results are compiled, Clayton said he’ll sit down with the management team and “see where we can improve.”

Be careful what you ask for. Our company does that every year. They put our a survey. It's has helped out a lot. Hopefully it will help Dish too.
