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.

The entire hiring and onboarding process has been super smooth and the HR team is very responsive, welcoming, and helpful. I really enjoyed the interview process. Management came across as genuinely friendly, approachable, and supportive from the very first interaction. I am beyond excited to officially start my journey with Forbright Bank.

None so far based on my experience!

Pros

Not much to do while at work. Everyone hates working there. The leadership loooves hosting pointless zoom call meetings since it's the only thing on their agendas.

Cons

No one really cares, leadership is none existent. Loooooow pay. There is no reason for this bank to exist besides just another bank that secure another 250k FDIC protection for saving rate chasers.
