    Hacking incident

    Okay guess I'm not the only one. It wouldn't let me log in yesterday and I thought it was just my phone acting up. Did we really get hacked?

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

    No one employed by Dish in any manner thinks they're untouchable. Hence the name of this thread.

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

    And your quick to point out that dish and RSPs are so different did you know that we're required to wear the same uniforms DNS techs wear? And drive the exact same white vans? And use the exact same tablet computer? RSPs are the backbone of Dish in America. There are more subs, retailers, and...

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

    Sorry jack you don't know what the hell your talking about. There are entire states run entirely by RSPs. And by entire states I mean like ten to fifteen that I know about for sure. And I mean the RSP is all there is no inhouse dish presence whatsoever. And these are mainly rural states that...

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

    When he says back charged he doesn't mean as a subscriber. He means as a retailer they will "back-charge" you for a job meaning not pay you for the work that you completed.

    Thanks a lot guys. Know I'm asking a lot of questions but this is something I'm very new at and don't know very much about. One last question though. How high should it be mounted?

    Well I'm really trying to do this without putting much money in it. Would it work in the condition it's in now?

    When you say that it will capture a wider range of spectrum than I need what exactly does that mean?

    Yeah mast and everything comes with it. What all is involved in set up? Do I need an amp or anything? Or can I run rg6 straight from the antenna to my tv?

    Okay when I said I'm new to this it basically means I know absolutely nothing about it. All the VHF high and low is Greek to me. Taking it down might be a pain but with my tools I could get it done. Would it work good is my question.

    New to OTA

    Okay I'm a tech for dish and was doing an install for a lady today who was just moving into a house. She had a large antenna outside and I asked her what she was gonna do with it and she told me I could have it. I'm new to OTA and it's something I'm wanting to get into so I don't know very much...

    Dish Rated as Worst Company to Work For by Employees

    That's how dish gets you. They actually do pay pretty good I mean you can easily make 50k a year. And without a degree of some kind it's really hard to find anything comparable in this economy. So as others have said I love the job but utterly hate the company.

    Dish Rated as Worst Company to Work For by Employees

    I work RSP. which is almost the same as inhouse. We drive the same vans wear the same uniforms use the same tablets and are subject to the same rules.

    Dish Rated as Worst Company to Work For by Employees

    That's what your not understanding. YOU DO NOT GET HOLIDAY PAY OR ANY ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION WHATSOEVER. If Christmas falls on a Tuesday you get paid like its any other Tuesday. And I know for a fact that is not the norm with most service jobs. A good friend of mine is a line technician with...

    The rule is definitely never take anything from a customer under any circumstances.

    Dish Rated as Worst Company to Work For by Employees

    It's funny all the people taking up for dish don't actually work there. And yeah mandatory holidays is not really the problem. Working a holiday with no additional pay or incentive to work is the problem. And like I said before ask what is involved in a trouble call.

    Dish Rated as Worst Company to Work For by Employees

    Ask your next technician about how trouble calls affect them. Then you'll understand why it rates so low.

    Dish supposedly adds 655,000 subs for Q2 2012

    I haven't heard many people complain about losing AMC, but I've switched numerous D* customers who are upset over the Viacom issue.

    Downgrading Package

    Same here. I'm a tech and very rarely do I see issues with 722s. Now 311s an 322s I'm swapping out all the time but not 722s.
