Pros

Flight benefits but you are lower than the janitor on the standby list

Cons

Very very low pay, on reserve you can get called in & if they cancel the flight you get absolutely nothing. Be prepared to pay the train fares / Uber’s to get to a canceled 2 hour call out flight and then get no rest for your next trip. I can’t believe some of the things this company does is even legal. 24 hours a day / 6 days a week reserve ??? This is inhumane & you’re making $4 more an hour than some Paul joe at McDonald’s when you’re sitting at the airport for 5+ hours for your delays and don’t get anything. The pay definitely needs to be increased or this is just a joke... if you’re living in a cheap crashpad (with 30 roomates) - my current situation... be prepared to spend 1/4 of your whole monthly income from frontier on that... don’t include train rides, food expenses, and everything else... I can’t imagine what my check would look like if i accepted any of the benefits.

Pros

It pays “some” of my bills.

Cons

I want to begin by expressing my disappointment with the union’s representation of its members. There is a significant lack of transparency and consistent communication, leaving many employees feeling uninformed and disconnected from the bargaining process. From my perspective, aircraft mechanics working under this contract are compensated well below the industry standard despite the critical role we play in maintaining safety and operational reliability. It often feels as though these concerns are not being adequately addressed or prioritized. Unfortunately, the current environment has made this airline feel more like a temporary stepping stone than a place where skilled mechanics can build long-term careers. Until meaningful improvements are made to compensation, communication, and representation, I believe retaining experienced technicians will continue to be a challenge.
