Pros

They talk a Good Game, but, don't know how to play it.

Cons

Management rules by intimidation and threats. A hostile workplace describes it best. Captive audience group meetings are fruitless. Here is an example of the intimidation practiced by management. One manager told his workgroup, "This is a new company...we fire people!" He surely struck fear into his group that morning.

Pros

Money and benefits were great until Frontier took over. The company is currently actively engaged in de-unionizing work force with jobs moved to non union shops. Expereinced help replaced by underpaid and under skilled work force.

Cons

Overtime requirements after aquisition of Verizon properties was grueling. Over all mentality of this employeer was do more with less, and customer service suffered.

Pros

Best thing is that I have a pension from GTE/Verizon that I can still utilize even being with Frontier. Frontier does not have a pension (only 401k plans)

Cons

No recognition for service anniversaries. When I hit 25 years even my boss never acknowledged the landmark. Unfair in giving death in family leave time. Don't understand the reason for difference in approvals for death in family - there seems to be nothing in writing for management to follow. There are three levels of workers in my department all given the same job title. Some get overtime, others get bonus, and the third group gets neither. All do the same work and work side by side no one knows why these three groups are different when the work is all the same.
