Hey Union, We are ready to finalize the contract. The company has agreed to most everything we asked for other than retirement medical. Which let’s face it. That was your total fu-k up if you didn’t actually get the money for the membership. Get a... —  read more 

Are the NY inbreds ready to rock? Or is Texas the master NOC?

Does anybody wonder if the new executives know what its like for the bottom personnel? Do you think they believe the managers in-between us and them, you know the ones blaming everyone else but themselves?

CA CWA has “agreed” with FTR to change medical retirement to “bridge to Medicare” so once retiree turns 65 member and dependents LOSE medical coverage once this contract is ratified. Members who voted NO previously because of this assumed CWA was... —  read more

Laying off people in collections and remittance in small numbers, be ready larger one I'm sure is coming!

Why all the complaining. It's just a job. Get educated and move on or stay and play the game. It's that easy. Newbies or seasoned techs all realize that working harder is not the answer. You're just putting in ur time to hopefully retire someday. I... —  read more 

This has become a place where people can just waste their talent. I believe that the company no longer has many options when it comes to new hires, because almost no one wants to work here anymore, but the lack of skills of new hires is really... —  read more

Just waiting for the bust!

If the Unions genuinely care about job security, why on Earth would they do everything they can think of to try and make our company unsuccessful. Seems like kinda crazy logic, but perhaps logic isn't their strong point ;-)

With frontier having to satisfy the shareholders by adding as many fiber customers it can by the end of the year it’s time for the local unions to take advantage of this opportunity! Start negotiations now!! You have the leverage! They need what you... —  read more

Frontier is facing 5 million dollars in fines for using contractors in CT. Contractors have no oversight and are causing electrical outages for unsafe practices.

More of the same. The new War of 1812.

Government sham. Stop the subsidy! Write your Congressman!

At some point the only full time people at frontier will be VPs, Dir and a few reps in each state to set up tables at events. The rest will be vendors and contractors.

It's utterly embarrassing how little info anyone is given. Management and VPs should be ashamed at themselves but they don't care.
