Pros

Flexible work schedule depending on workgroup and manager. Some learning opportunities through new projects. Some great employees within the company who are very knowledgeable and do their job very well.

Cons

Lack of work-life balance. Incomplete long-term strategy to remain viable and adequately compete with cable competition. Diminishing benefits. CEO's current consideration of dropping healthcare coverage for all employees. Sub-par non-union pay.

Pros

None. Frontier will hopefully be bankrupt soon. They have no idea how to run a phone company.

Cons

Management structure, upper management is clueless. They are hired on how well they kiss butt.

Pros

-Coworkers are occasionally talented and intelligent. -Good pay if you're in a union.

Cons

-Coworkers' talents are by and large wasted due to mismanagement. We have people with bachelor's degrees taking calls and doing glorified records keeping. -Company is actively attacking the remaining union centers and replacing them with lower payed employees in right-to-work states. -Middle and Upper management are mostly dysfunctional. Upper has no valuable input aside from "SELL SELL SELL" and Middle is authoritative and micromanaging. -Employees do not have a sense of purpose or making a difference. -Employees are not listened to by management. -Employees are not given opportunities to advance their careers. -Employees in call centers are subjected to favoritism and prejudice versus "VIP" staff. We regularly have staff come in to our center for weeks. They're given daily catered meals, parking in front, etc. We are reminded monthly to only park in back, and if we're lucky, we're given the scraps of what the VIPs had left over at the end of the day.
