This video says that 1000s of customer service employees were affected at Spectrum. Unclear if it's from multiple states or not.

Does Dish even offer “Remote” work? The postings we have seen are positions where someone would have to travel a lot or travel to different states.

@"Dish can make a big positive change with boost in the next few months"

You're not paying attention if you think that possible. Since Dish acquired Boost from Sprint they've been a "train wreck!"

Astonishingly Bad Boost Mobile Customer Loses

Boost Mobile has lost over 2.5M subs since Dish took them over on 7/1/20. Dish's total reported wireless customer base stands at only 7.5M down from high of 10M. That's over 25% attrition rate!

Boost Mobile's average revenue per user dropped from $38.17 to $35.74, a decrease of slightly under 10%.

To sum it up, even when Dish priced down it's services they couldn't halt their terrible customer losses of 3+ years.

Wireless will never be the growth engine Dish naively dreamed it would be. Coupled with their Sattelite TV and streaming loses this company's future is on the road to insolvency.

"Dish has good equipment. There’s still time to raise money. In the last earnings call, it was noted that dish is not in a rush to raise money and is taking the time."

There isn't much time at all. They may say they're not in a rush so that they don't scare investors, but they're panicked (if theyre smart). If they're not panicked, then they're just arrogant and ignorant...which Charlie is...

If you are d-mb enough to say that dish is a good company then you clearly don't know anything and you don't do research. Do a little thinking and read through the companies form 10Q. We barely were able to pay our notes due in March, and our next notes are due in November and it literally states in there that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to make those payments. It also says that we ended the quarter in the negatives and we are projecting to stay in the negatives all year. Tell me how that makes dish the best? Is it the millions of subscribers that we lose every year across all brands? Is it the work from home policy that is non-existent? Dish has been a sinking ship for years and poor leadership, lackluster decision making, poor pay, and the inability to be flexible are just some of the reasons why dish is not the best ❤️

Dish can make a big positive change with boost in the next few months after revisiting the brand thing. Anyone else think dish can get the needed finances to cover Q4 operations and the debt maturity deadline in November? Analysts have been critical. Time will tell.

Someone is drinking the Dish kool-aid. If you were smart you would freshen up that resume and start applying elsewhere. You could be the next contestant in "Who's losing their job now?!" Round of cuts that comes next...and it WILL happen before summer is over, maybe more than once. Don't believe the cr-p they're trying to force feed you.

People would be posting online if there were layoffs everyday. Dish is the best.

Layoffs everyday? There would be WARN notices if there were mass layoffs.

Nothing good is happening here, do not believe the lies that the leadership will shove in your face like propaganda. There are layoffs happening everyday, hundreds of thousands of dollars lost everyday and even the so called "Won Naval Contract" is an exaggerated truth. We won the ability to compete against 8 other carriers for a year to see who can provide the best service and the "$15 Billion" would be given to the contract winner over the next 10 years. But none of that will stop the leadership from standing in front of everyone with the same ol "All is well, we have some exciting things coming" speech.
