Pros

Great benefits and pay, especially for a newer employee like myself, as long as you prove yourself by selling like a mad man, while still making sure you are taking care of the customer, then it can be a good job to work. Great benefits, good pay, good teams and great supervisors. I highly recommend applying to the Everett call center!

Cons

Other representatives, the unfortunate side of any company, you get the honest hard working reps, then you get the reps that do not know their job as well. The frustrating issue that commonly occurs is other reps stealing your sales, that or reps cramming accts.

Pros

good pay and benefits, for now, no idea what the new contract will bring.

Cons

Used to be a good place to work

Pros

You will be challenged here, both personally and professionally. Pay is lower than regional average, but reasonable. Benefits, while expensive, are better than other places.

Cons

My salary was significantly lower than regional average for the work I performed. Career advancement is nearly impossible. In the 8 years I was employed at Frontier, I know of less than 15 people who were promoted in the IT department. The only way to be promoted is to leave the company. I know of someone who applied for the same position at Frontier and Paychex. He was told by FTR he wasn't qualified, while at PAYX he was over-qualified. He left FTR when offered the identical PAYX position. There is no work-life balance. Just before I left, my team was told in a staff meeting the minimum number of hours we should expect to work is 60 per week, and friends who are still employed there report working 90+ hours per week. There is no increase in their salaries, nor any bonuses paid for these extra hours worked. There is no interest in training employees. In 8 years, I was sent to only 4 courses. Senior management will often change project expectations in mid project and not communicate the change, leading to confusion and mistrust of upper management. Management used to be approachable, but now operates using fear. I was personally threatened with being fired by my manager after reporting unethical activity by upper management to HR. I was also told I would not be hired elsewhere because "there are no jobs." I was hired less than a month after leaving the company.
