Morale among craft employees is at an is at an all-time low. After over 40 years of being a proud telecom employee, I find myself embarrassed to admit who my employer is, thanks to the incompetent upper management that weaseled their way into power... — read more

Leadership doesn't care if Frontier survives past their payday
Frontier only wants low cost contractors to do all jobs. They don't care about anything, they don't know how anything works, they have no clue. The college kids from Bain are just cutting all the ways Frontier actually makes money and stays afloat... — read more
FTR layoffs
Are they planning to stop layoffs at some point? FTR is losing very valuable people, this will damage the company in the long run. Sometimes I feel they do not value workers.
Door to door?
Omfg!!! Now they have local managers going door to door with flyers offering customers higher speed. Un-phucking-believable I think we must have elementary school children running this damn thing. SMH
Frontier is a sinking ship
They don't care about their employees and the hire ups don't fight for you. Deland, Fl had major cut backs in commission in there sales que. They constantly make goals ridiculously high and pay us less. 9 years of always hitting past top goal and now... — read more

Century Link possibly buying California and Florida
Rumor out of Las Vegas is Century Link possibly buying California and Florida. I know for California there has been talk behind the scenes of Frontier and CWA having talks about removing the “no lay-off” clause in the current extended contract which... — read more
Are we looking at some big changes at Frontier?
Another reorg? More layoffs? I'm asking because we lost a manager and two coworkers in a week - both of who were good with said manager. They all decided to quit together, or so it seems, which has me worried that he might have know something the... — read more

Good luck to employees in WA, ID, OR, and MT; hope the upcoming transition isn’t too awful. Been there...
Changes
Found out the eCommerce office in Tampa, FL was dismantled and all agents are now part of the call center. Agents who haven't been on phones in over 10 years now having to take customer calls. Wonder how many will leave.
If FTR management truly had people running scared it would be the customers. Just saying.
If FTR management truly had people running scared it would be the customers. Just saying. Everything is broken down to the culture. No one wants to help but everyone points fingers. The front runners on the calls are great but no where near top notch... — read more

Why hasn’t bought them at a garage sale price yet?
FTR isn’t worth much these days. I’m really surprised a company like Comcast hasn’t plunked down an insulting but irresistible offer and taken the place over. Consider this: A large cable MSO could easily come in and migrate a large portion of the... — read more
Life lately at Frontier

Frontier to Cut 280 Jobs out of Henrietta, NY
Anyone have any information about exactly which center they're referring to? If I recall correctly, there's multiple Henrietta Technical Support Centers. https://13wham.com/news/local/frontier-to-cut-280-positions-at-henrietta-support-center
Stay away from Frontier
There is no future here - this company has gone downhill and is showing no indication of ever changing direction. The only thing those on top know to do lately is lay people off - that's their answer to everything. My advice to anybody who is still... — read more

Quit or be fired. That’s Frontier new standard. I’m riding out my disibility and starting my new job soon. F>>% You Frontier
They are preassuriung us to quit
I feel like Frontier is trying to force as many of us to quit as it can. Did you notice how even the slightest infractions are now blown out of proportion? How managers have started behaving even worse than before - going as far as to yell at... — read more
Safety?
Forcing your employees to function in an environment where they feel they must constantly look behind their backs for micro-managing supervision who are tasked with reducing the workforce makes for an extremely unsafe workplace.
Attention FCC & PSCs!
Frontier Communications is doing its best to thin-out their workforce by k--ling moral with poor treatment, a lack of appreciation, empowerment, and trust, and firing its employees based on silly, trivial, on-the-fly rules. The number of Company... — read more
