Pros

Once was a good place to work. Days of Sam Adams of being a CEO. Todays Frontier has no positive.

Cons

Upper management down to lower management is awful. Outsourcing has caused the planes to be unsafe. It's a matter of time before a big crash. Pay is lowest in all airlines they compare there on time performance and completion factor too. They want to be number one in these areas but not even midrange in pay. There going to be number one in you crashes.

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.
