Pros
Some co-workers were fun and enjoyable to be around. Hearing that the families and individuals have progressed was rewarding.
Cons
I worked for FBR for less than 1 year and was laid off due to my position being "eliminated". The parent company, CIS, needed to make up for a money loss because they aren't quite sure what they are doing in terms of how to run a company. Not even 4 months later after I was laid off, my position was posted online as open, then filled, and the new employee's salary is double of what my salary was in the same role. Company's revenue wasn't doing so well, was it? Employees of CIS are judgmental, rude, selfish and never approve anything for FBR employees. The management at the FBR Corporate office is laughable as well. Individuals were placed into billing department manager positions who have no management experience and make a sickening amount of money for it. The senior leadership team will lie to employees and field offices to save their own jobs instead of trying to help others. Area Operations Directors have NO idea what they are doing. Give them a fancy title and suddenly they are above everyone. They do and say a lot of illegal things when hiring new employees or having conversations with employees. Trainings were provided and the Director's were too important to pay attention to those trainings. A general no respect lingers at each office throughout FBR.
