Great Experience, Interesting Work, Nice location

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours (for many positions), nice coworkers, work from home option (for some positions), challenging work for those interested in advancement, growing opportunities as the company grows (international), nice facilities, great location, President handed out masks to all employees (enough for our families too) when COVID hit / company cares, benefit costs don't keep going up each year like at my last job - the employer absorbs the increase in benefit costs so the employees don't have to pay more.

Cons

Some employees have a negative attitude, but I think that happens everywhere.

Pros

The pace and growth opportunities as well as the people I work with provide a rewarding experience. My Leader is the best I have worked with in my career. We are continually reviewing new processes and technology to increase efficiencies. Similar to others in our industry, we cannot hire fast enough however, the entire management team at Frontage engages in our talent acquisition activities! Great location, free coffee and convenient parking!

Cons

Must wear a mask while in the office...not unique to Frontage.
