CRB Reviews

Horribly managed, if you're anything above entry level get out! Merit does not matter at CRB, it's all about who you know and where you work. Company culture is a thing of the past, now its just an attempted profit center that does not care about its people. Promotes poor management and throws design team under the bus at any moment. If you are not friends with the bosses you have virtually no chance to move through the ranks unless you're willing to kiss up and become friends with said bosses. Bringing up any of these issues to leadership will get you labeled as a "complainer" and pushed further down the line. Poor management will lead to lower profits and really impact this company in a couple years when poor performance employees that we're promoted on nepotism are running the show. Get out while you can.

The office I worked in had a couple employees that were buddies with the leader in that office. They were both toxic and created a lot of trouble for anyone they didn't like or wanted to exert their "authority" over. Senior leadership needs to take a look at all offices, beyond how much profit they are sending back to the home office, for real sour eggs that are driving incredible dysfunction within many of the offices. Similar politics at the top end of the spectrum too. The "senior associates" are also notoriously plagued by in fighting and playing favorites, especially about those who are promoted to "associates." I cannot in good faith recommend any one pursue a career here after what I've seen and witnessed. The office I worked for has had 50% turn over of entire staff since I've been gone. Incredible and I cannot believe nothing has been done. Just shows you that profits are the core business value here, nothing to do with client satisfaction or employee opportunities.
