Dish Network, the Meanest Company in America

For 2012, the website 24/7 Wall St. determined that the worst company to work for in America was the Dish Network http://www.dish.com/redirects/promotion/offer26/?WT.srch=1&KBID=65457&WT.mc_id=GSBNDNBHV_2515&gclid=CKT8k9itzLQCFQ_hQgodJ3IAMA&gclsrc=aw.ds (DISH), the Englewood (Colo.)-based company that provides satellite TV to more than 14 million subscribers. To pick its winner, the site began by sifting entries on glassdoor.com, an online service where people gossip about their jobs. It was hardly the most scientific of methods. Still, the volume of miserable tales about Dish is impressive; 346 former or current employees had taken the time to write not-so-nice things about the company. On a scale of 1 to 5, they ranked their company an average of 2.2, beating Dillard’s (DDS) and RadioShack (RSH) for the spot at the bottom.
