They sent a video update stating that:

2. New hire bonus is gone, unless you've already signed an offer letter that has the bonus offer in writing. I for example have one I signed that has the offer. They could easily re-offer me a new class date with no bonus, but pretty soon there will flat out be no bonuses offered period.
I consider myself extremely fortunate to be in the hiring pool already. Feel bad for the dudes I watched get turned away. I might have seen the last two CJO recipients for months get their CJOs, so that was cool.
I don't see this as a bad sign for the company but I do see it as a sign things really are slowing down.
First, I have a hard time believing that The only person that knows what's going on is someone that doesn't even work for Frontier.
Secondly, my son is in the pool and hasn't receive this video you speak of.
Thirdly, Frontier said they are still accepting FO applications and I sent mine today. The Cadet and RTP applications have been closed for awhile.
