Pros

My experience at Frontline has been nothing short of remarkable—I’ve been trusted with opportunities that are valuable for my career, been surrounded by coworkers and mentors who truly care, and been part of a team that’s united in making a positive impact. Some pro's: -PEOPLE!- The best part about Frontline is certainly the people: from employees all the way up to our company leadership, I have met some of the nicest, kindest people at Frontline who genuinely care about their co-workers and the educational community. -Flexibility—Managers and coworkers have gone above and beyond to encourage work /life balance and my overall well-being. -New opportunities for growth- The high growth & constant evolution of Frontline are creating a lot of space for employee potential as there is always new skills to learn & projects to pitch in on! I am constantly amazed by how different & exciting & engaging every day is. -Benefits—low premiums on health insurance, decent 401K match, tuition reimbursement, life insurance, generous time off policies -Integrity- there’s a real sense of integrity in the company. People mean what they say & are constructively transparent. -Teamwork- Frontline’s teams value unique perspectives and diverse ideas. Different company leaders have sought out feedback in many ways—from project based feedback, to breakfast with an executive, to an annual employee survey.

Cons

Tension from Growth- Frontline is a unique company, rapidly growing both from hiring and acquisitions. We’re trying to be an industry-leading enterprise company without necessarily having the deep pockets or manpower of an established tech giant. This can be difficult & has created some internal tension. Not a place to coast—If you are looking for a 9-5 where you can just coast & not be challenged, then this is certainly not the place for you. You will be challenged at this company—and if you’re willing to get onboard and pitch in, it’s an amazing experience!

Pros

I have genuinely enjoyed my experience at Frontline Education. The culture is collaborative, supportive, and focused on both professional growth and innovation. Leadership consistently invests in employees while also making meaningful investments in AI and technology that are clearly shaping the future of the company in a positive way. It is exciting to be part of an organization that is forward thinking and committed to evolving with the needs of education. The direction the company is headed feels strategic and purpose driven. Teams are encouraged to share ideas, embrace change, and contribute to impactful work that truly matters. What stands out most is the balance between innovation and people. Frontline continues to create an environment where employees feel valued while also pushing boundaries in ways that will keep the company competitive and innovative.

Cons

My experience has been very positive.

Pros

The team members I work with are amazing remnants of what the company used to be like just a short year ago. Unlimited PTO and remote work (unless you're close enough to an office for them to force attendance) are great for work-life balance.

Cons

Tiny annual raises, often lower than the rate of inflation. The company has made a clear shift away from having a "family" culture toward cutthroat productivity at all costs. Before I begin this section, I'll premise it by stating clearly: I am not anti-AI. It's an amazing tool that has helped me be far more productive in my work. BUT: Upper management, especially in Product, seems to have been taken over by people who, in my view, are AI grifters. More interested in bolstering their resume with "AI revolution" than working in a company alongside human beings. "AI First" has translated to upper management demanding the use of AI wherever possible, followed by a more recent scolding (and I use that word intentionally, as it was the clear tone of the meeting) in a Technology-wide meeting for using it "wrong" now that AI providers are hiking up fees, with no self-awareness or accountability for the fact that we were doing what was asked with a new technology we haven't yet received formal training on. "AI First" has also translated to employees with a decade+ tenure being demoted and shuffled around to make room for more pro-AI new-hires. What this has all led to is some of our best and most knowledgeable team members leaving the company over the past month or two, leaving us with huge knowledge gaps that will not be filled by AI tools.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Frontline's commitment to supporting the K-12 community has not changed, and neither has our belief that our people are our greatest strength. We continue to hear from team members that our culture is collaborative, welcoming, and mission-driven, and we're intentional about building a team with the skills, expertise, and accountability needed to support our customers and our future success. As we continue to embrace AI, our focus is on using it to reduce manual, repetitive work, accelerate innovation, and help teams solve problems more efficiently. We're making significant investments in AI tools, enablement, and skill development because we want Frontline to be a place where team members can grow their careers while helping shape the future of K-12 technology. By mid-year, we will have expanded those investments through additional AI tools, training, and enablement opportunities designed to help our teams build new skills and work more effectively. We believe AI is a powerful tool, but its greatest value comes when paired with the expertise, creativity, and judgment of talented professionals. The knowledge and dedication of our Frontliners remain essential to how we serve our customers and deliver results. If you would like to discuss your feedback further, we encourage you to reach out to our People and Culture team: P&C@frontlineed.com.
