Pros

Pros, not much. Employees get a small discount on the products (phone, internet, TV). Frontier has a small 401K matching program.

Cons

Too much emphasis on selling products to customers. Frontier requires each employee to make sales (referrals). Not everyone is cut out to be a sales person. And the referral system is broken. Lower management to scared to discuss anything with upper mgmt. Upper mgmt. does not want to hear how the business really is. If lower mgmt. tries to say anything, they can be fired immediately. Upper mgmt. wants to get rid of employees and have contractors do the jobs.

Pros

-Basic tech work for decent pay -Benefits -Full Time -Experience on the resume -Frontier hires from within so you can in fact move up from within the company -You can move up to things like the NOC (Network Operating Center) or Fiber Optics, or even the Malware/Offline team w/o any extra certifications simply by learning as you go along -If you don't know something you always have someone you can ask, whether it's a Lead, Senior Tech, the guy/girl sitting next to you... or Google... -If you can sell you can make a decent amount of extra cash and the more you sell the more you can make per what you sell -You can make more per hour depending how much you sell -Shift bids every 3 months so you depending on seniority you can kind of "mold" your schedule. -Friendly atmosphere from co-workers and superiors -Casual dress code

Cons

-Some the non-tech savvy are hired (not all the time, but more often then should happen) -Not enough field techs to meet the repair/installation demands -For some techs, empathy, compassion, and patience is lacking
