Overview:

Who We are:

Fortune 250 company that continues to redefine the communications industry, with more than $12 billion in annual revenue. Our legacy is innovation and a willingness to challenge the status quo, including reinventing ourselves. We disrupted the pay-TV industry in the mid-90s with the launch of the satellite TV service, taking on some of the largest U.S. corporations in the process, and grew to be the fourth-largest pay-TV provider. We are doing it again with the first live, internet-delivered TV service that bucks traditional pay-TV norms and gives consumers a truly new way to access and watch television. Now we have our sights set on upending the wireless industry and unseating the entrenched incumbent carriers.

A key part of our initiative is a strategic focus on Blockchain technology to help enable growth across all our lines of business.

We are driven by curiosity, pride, adventure, and a desire to win. We're looking for people with energy, intelligence, and an overwhelming desire to achieve to join our team as we embark on the next chapter of our story.

Opportunity is here.
