      Quite a ride

      Systems administrator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Brilliant admins and great network design. Service desk and cyber folks are absolute champs!

      Cons

      Performance is judged based on entirely arbitrary due dates as opposed to quality of work product. Using sick days will get you fired. Management doesn’t stay focused long enough to communicate needs and changes to high level planning. There is no priority rating for tasks, so you will be yelled at for throwing a minor thing to back burner to focus on a more pressing item, once again based on entirely arbitrary dates.

      Thank you for your review. We agree that our IT team is amazing! It's unfortunate to hear that you didn't have a more positive experience. Our leadership team values work-life balance and encourages employees to use all 20 days of PTO throughout the year. We provide flexibility with work schedules with the expectation that our employees will get the job done as we are all working together to ensure the Bank's success. During this exciting time of growth, we are always looking to make improvements to our processes through internal working committees and our communication with quarterly town halls, monthly brunch and learns and company newsletters.

      Management not supportive, Poor Working Conditions, dishonest management, poor work life balance

      Administrative

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary competitive, flexible work schedule, enjoyed the work and enjoyed co-workers

      Cons

      Leadership did not have integrity, expectations too high for role hired for, no feedback on a regular basis, no performance reviews, culture very poor, and dishonest management. Do not work here. Everyone complains about work life balance. Very poor diversity and no evident diversity goals.

      Mission-Driven Bank that Prioritizes Employee Flexibility

      Portfolio manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Forbright Bank is uniquely positioned as an operator in the finance industry that prioritizes sustainability and employee wellness. The Company is on a growth trajectory with clear organizational goals stated by management. Teams are collaborative with limited turnover. Employees are empowered to complete their work in the way that is most effective for them, with remote and hybrid schedules available.

      Cons

      As with any growing company, internal processes tend to change over time (generally for the better, but still requiring flexibility from employees) and formal training can be limited.
