Thanks for following along during World Space Week! This year’s “Women in Space” theme is to promote diversity and highlight some of the great women and their contributions in the industry, as shown in our #throwback picture with Jennifer Larson and Kelly Colarusso in front of the Maxar Technologies spacecraft! If you’re looking for a career in the space industry and interested in leading the way in satellite and space technologies where the work is literally “out of this world” – join our mission at DISH. We’re changing the way the world communicates and we’re looking for people like you to help make it happen.
When highlighting strong and successful women in space, we HAD to start with Jennifer Larson, our VP of Spacecraft Engineering and Operations, and a 23-year DISH veteran! Read what Jenny has to say about working as a woman in space at DISH: “I feel pretty fortunate that I have an opportunity at DISH to combine my passions for space and solving problems with a career that allows me to work in space every day flying spacecraft. One of the best things about working in the space career field is the people you meet and work alongside. Compared to many other industries, there are very few people that work in the space operations career field, and even fewer women. DISH has supported my efforts to bring awareness and advocate for our work, both internally and externally. I’m always happy and willing to share my passions and experiences in hope that more people, especially women, will consider this type of career path.” Learn more about Jenny: https://lnkd.in/eG5VGv9u Read about her experience with the EchoStar X launch: https://lnkd.in/eCtSefqu

See what our National Sales Manager, Sonya Jamula, has to say about embracing a Winning mindset. “Winning isn't about finishing in first place, but more about surpassing yourself. It's a mindset and a commitment to a goal and seeing it through.”
Our 4th core value is Winning. At DISH, winning is in our DNA. No wonder we won our 4th-consecutive year as #1 in Customer Satisfaction Award by J.D. Power. And while we recognize we can't win everything, winning is a state of mind. It's the ability to tackle new challenges with the confidence that we can make a difference and, ultimately, put DISH in a position to win.
See how Manufacturing Manager, Nelly Jimenez, embraces Adventure daily! “It's exciting to work in a dynamic environment like manufacturing. I work with brilliant people who are improving the way we do things, and I get to be a part of that adventure. Being a part of a team that isn't afraid to get out there and make change happen is fulfilling and exhilarating.”
Congratulations DISH Nation for being ranked #1 in Customer Satisfaction by J.D. Power for the FOURTH year in a row! We want to thank all of our amazing customers and our dedicated team members serving them each and every day.
