Pros

People you work with on a daily basis

Cons

How do I begin? ... I'll comment on what I witnessed personally. Well, the billing and ordering systems were designed for residential customers, and not businesses with hundreds to thousands of lines. There is no automation and everything is manual. They may have worked prior to the VZ sale, but there are too many customers for that now. That will always be an issue ... There are no processes that aren't broken in terms of billing or ordering, which includes installation of new services. Investments in "new" technologies are limited to Metro E, which will flop because management will never understand putting processes together and working together interdepartmentally. The morale is so bad, that it's like every department for themselves ... If you look up on the internal directory you'll notice that you can bring up over 150 VPs for a company with less than 15K employees. Can you say top heavy? ... Oh, by the way, much like how Frontier fibs their numbers to Wall Street (and they aren't buying that crap anymore), they also fib the "100 percent American workforce".Contractors doing daily work are from overseas; it's not as if all the work is based in the U.S. ... This is all on top of having every perk from the VZ days taken away, and salaries lowered across the board while the CEO received a 700 percent raise ... Oh, oh, and fear-based upper management (be happy you have a job mentality) ... that's not all that's wrong, but that's what came off the top of my head.

Pros

Dependable paycheck, Competitive pay. Nice office park. Free parking.

Cons

Promotions from within are very difficult under certain EVP's and good under others. Make sure to openly ask. Culture is old school and prefers older practices and technologies,

Pros

The benefits and the interaction with a lot of the customers I can actually help.

Cons

Sales tactics, no accountability for unethical sales(switches to accounts), sub par computer systems that do not have the same information, internet way over sold before updates are done, training minimal for new hires (some classes have actually been cut in half to get people on the phones), lower pay and commission for new hires and not knowing if you are going to ever get a raise, having to handle angry customers because either the tech didn't show up or their bill is never correct(and it really is not correct).......
