I recently had the opportunity to work with Frontier, and while the experience had its merits, significant challenges affected the overall work environment and employee morale.

One of the primary issues I encountered at Frontier was the pervasive micromanagement culture. Managers seemed overly concerned with monitoring every aspect of daily tasks, leaving little room for autonomy and creativity. This management style often resulted in a lack of trust and hindered our ability to work efficiently.

Furthermore, the company's goal-setting practices left much to be desired. Unrealistic goals were set seemingly to justify continuous monitoring rather than encouraging meaningful achievements. This approach fostered an atmosphere of pressure and anxiety, making it difficult for employees to focus on providing quality service.

It became evident that the owners' primary focus was on selling the company and maximizing their profits. As a result, a significant emphasis was placed on boosting sales figures without giving equal attention to the quality of service provided to customers. This approach undermined the company's potential for long-term success and failed to prioritize customer satisfaction.

Despite these challenges, I must acknowledge that some positive aspects existed within Frontier. The workforce was generally dedicated and motivated to deliver the best possible results, despite the constraints imposed by the management style. Additionally, certain team members exhibited remarkable expertise and professionalism in their respective roles.

In conclusion, Frontier has the potential to become a more fulfilling and successful workplace if it addresses the issues of micromanagement and unrealistic goal-setting. Prioritizing a customer-centric approach and creating a healthier work environment that fosters trust and autonomy would improve employee satisfaction and long-term growth. As a prospective employee or customer, I would recommend paying close attention to the company's efforts in addressing these concerns before committing to any long-term engagement.

For the most part, your fellow employees are alright down to earth guys that are dealing with the same situations as you are on a daily basis. Team work goes along way and we tend to help each other out some times regularly.
One of the worst things about this company is the local management team. Unfortunately they have their heads up their backside and enjoy talking smack about each other on a regular bases as well as other employees, sometimes in the presence of other employees. I've never worked at a company where this happens so much. Personally, that alone is enough reason to remove or retrain or seperate them in my opinion. 
If you're looking to advance in this company, or possibly make it a life long career good luck, the "Good Ole Boy" club is strong here, and if you're not in it then you're not going to advance. 
If you're the kind of person who needs to feel like what you're doing at work is fulfilling to you in any way then this place isn't for you, it's a paycheck and not much of one at that. Look for employment else where you're not going to find a sense of fulfillment here and your bank account isn't going to grow much either.

All day there no home life not enough pay for the stress

Worked here for two and half years with minimal advancement and barely anything in pay for running a front-end loader, scale house, delivery driver, helper, and learning to be a mechanic ($15/hour). The second I quit they want me to stay. It's really upper management. They would rather give out bonuses than raises. Tell you that you're not ambitious when you understand the company more than people who have been working longer than you. Other than that, I loved the guys that I worked with and that was the best experience of it all. 

I worked in Hillsboro yard for a few days, overall seemed like a good company for a local job. FYI the pay scale is not really hourly, more like a day rate that decreases rapidly if you work more than 10 or 11 or so hours, So look into that. Don't know about benefits because I was not there long enough...but it was cigna. Trucks are nice and DOT compliant. All was going well then i worked a shift with 3rd in command and figured I'm better off looking for something else. Don't work for these companies if they don't appreciate you for a human being, life is too short.

They want you to be a robot. No talking on the phone while driving, you can't drink or eat while driving and they want you to go exactly the speed limit. To a certain extent, i understand why for safety and insurance purposes, but I'm a human at the end of the day. It's like they monitor everything you do. This company will relocate you without your approval, to a different city. Other than those things, the job is OK

new trucks but more guidance is lacking there are more bosses than Indians cameras in the trucks if you finish early you can't leave you have to help others anyway there are days that you finish early and other days late you work on Saturdays full day supervisors need to be more professional no You can get sick or have family problems I asked for a day for personal problems and I'm still waiting if you don't arrive at 5:50 am they call you and if you arrive at 6:01 you are already late when you finish a section of your route you have to call
