You can tell how disconnected management is from the company and how they never actually talk to people. They get on a meeting and just spew like everything is great. Soon as you address issues they turn a blind eye because it requires them to do... — read more
Frontier on the Verizon
Wonder if DO is bringing any more people that Frontier wanted to can. He brings over these people that sit there and say Hi to a team one time. Be like im going to be engaged once a month and then you never see them again. Oh look another meeting... — read more
Employee ratings
There has a been a interesting string of posts here about how morale is improving at Uniti. If that is true how do you explain the falling employee ratings on glassdoor? It has shrank over the last year to 3.0 out of 5. That's the lowest of any major... — read more
Kinetic Business Back & Better Than Ever Before
Kinetic Business is thriving like never before. The group here now is quite simply the best there is, was and ever will be!
Kinetic is Winning!
Kinetic - Consuner and Business - is doing great. Leadership is strong and supportive. People in sales are happy. Not sure why the negativity here.
HIRINGNEED
"If business demand requires hiring, what's the justification for layoffs? A balanced workforce strategy is important."
Uniti Bore Crew Strikes Gas Line
In Twinsburg Ohio last week a Uniti Boring Crew struck a gas line they later claimed was incorrectly located by a 3rd party locating company. So far nobody believes them...
Whole company is garbage.
Uniti is on the path to being the most poorly run company in history. They now are looking for new vice presidents in many departments because they have laid off so many and lost so much revenue they are now in panic restructure while looking to sell... — read more
Love to see it
On Glassdoor, when you go to reviews, the entire first page of latest ones are negative. Good. People are waking up to what this place really is and warning others about it.
Rules for thee, not for me!
Rules for thee, not for me….. seems to be the mindset around this place. But I guess when trying to get the union to decert, everything is fair game on the company side. Had a tech get fired for not telling the truth, because it violated the... — read more
The death of Kinetic
More layoffs are coming, they recently took away all the company vehicles from the door-to-door teams and replaced it with a $300 a month stipend and no mileage reimbursement. And if you factor that in with all the stupidity that has happened with... — read more
Any day now
Waiting any day now to get the call to be RIF. That’s all I want. Come on DO bring over more failed Frontier people. What’s holding you back DO?
Time Study
Looks like employees manager level and below will have to start logging their activities for a “time study.”
Blowing smoke
It is hilarious watching all the smoke being blown about Kinetic winning all these women’s workplace awards…. Where are all these Women at in President and CEO roles? That is where it should be visible… otherwise it’s just a feel good smoke screen…
We have been duped
The ceo said for months that layoffs would be complete "by 1Q." Instead layoffs continue well into 2Q and cmo said on kinetic call yesterday that layoffs are a good thing so we don't become bloated like kodak. The foundation has been put down for... — read more
Failed company union busting
Looks like the company’s effort to union bust backfired again. Preying on all the new construction guys and new techs might have worked in NC, but failed horribly in FL. Over 80% of votes were to keep the union. JS is now 0-2 in his efforts!
Whoa. Which one of you went here? :)

Three blind mice
Even the cheese did not stand alone this week.
Another Thursday and?
So here we are thursday and what nothing? I mean there is one more next week but still.
Are we Frontier now?
Looking at new directors and senior directors for consumer, direct, and channel for Kinetic. 6 out of 7 are an easy find on LinkedIn from Frontier. It's shocking at how much new upper management folks are from Frontier.
Evil
Looks like T-Mobile will buy kinetic, and more layoffs coming. Uniti executives definitely securing their seats in he-l
4/16 - We are in trouble
The liars are at it again. I heard from my manager that another big round will happen on 4/16 and this one will wipe out several organizations. What is the point of doing all of this in phases instead of just one big change? We were told that all... — read more
Segra to Buy Uniti
Name to watch
T-Mobile and Others Checking Uniti Assets?
Buckle up! Now tell us Frontier’s clan didn’t come over for any other reason but to help secure the sale. The writing has been on the wall. “One source told the publication that T-Mobile (TMUS) and TPG could be partnering for an offer for the... — read more
Manager surveys
Time for old Windstream and Kinetic managers to get the axe. Its already started but the last few surveys have been about managers only. Quite a few needs to go because they are clueless and when you try to actually help them they want to get... — read more
Work hours
Not sure what the big deal was about me edging during a team meeting?
Liars
They laid off a whole group of people today, some with over 3 years at the company. If you still have a job I highly recommend you find a backup plan.
More Frontier
More frontier people started this week. Some of these people are downright id--ts. Why they’re here and how they have made it this far with titles like “senior director” make no sense. More vest wearing finance bros part of the chain.
Are layoffs done?
Can we be certain?
JL To Lead Kinetic Business Sales?
Heard that rumor
More Layoffs
At the last town hall they said layoffs were done and we had the right people in the right places. But more people were rif'd last week. Not sure what to believe.
Old concepts and broken systems
Smoke and mirrors to implement the old wing it by Windstream way is back. Uniti either loves losing customers or we are prepping to sell the whole company
Return to Office
I’ve been noticing a lot of new jobs it’s requiring in office work. They just opened up jobs for MDU and SMB. These jobs have a state requirement. So, it seems they might be pushing towards in office work and not remote. I’m just curious what will... — read more
STI hits 100% but layoffs keep going
They’re gonna sell this pig!!
More layoffs
I’m hoping our team is next. Seriously our team serves no purpose to be fair. It could be done by other departments or really just an automation in the system. It’s not survival it’s just the truth. Not sure why they even made this team as it doesn’t... — read more
How are they going to make it?
With 5G and 6G coming on tower to the home internet service, how will conventional fiber to the home survive? This company is wasting money on an outdated technology. The money to be made is in backbone fiber and fiber to the tower it seems. It's... — read more
STI did it meet goal?
With all the layoffs and a severance package that says “you’ll get your STI”. I’m guessing we’re not getting anywhere close to 100% on that. Does anyone know what the STI is?
Severance Update
Will anyone tell us what the severance package is?
