Dish Network: The Meanest Employer In America?

It isn't clear why Dish Network Corp. wants to spend $2.4 billion to gobble up Clearwire Corp. and its desirable chunk of high-speed wireless network capacity. But Clearwire employees have ample reason to hope the deal won't go through, seeing as there's no shortage of Dish employees who find the Colorado-based satellite-TV provider, "impossible to work for."

That's the assessment of one supposed former technical representative, who posted the comment on Glassdoor.com four days ago. It mirrors hundreds of other, similar reviews. The critique also notes that Dish "is constantly hiring due to their draconian policies and heavy-handedness."
