if you have a choice of doing both employment based GC and marriage based GC, it never hurts to do both. Your husband should file I-130 for you anyway.
I cannot see any benefits to having the husband file an FB2A I-130.
The proper thing to do is have the company file an LC so that she is eventually eligible for a 7th-year H. Once the husband becomes a citizen he should file an I-130/I-485.
aahh, here is the catch. Some people get an administrative check that lasts for years, others - too many speeding tickets, DUI, vehicular manslaughter, something that may prevent him from getting his citizenship in a couple of years. That's where an approved I-130 and a current PD comes in handy. It has happened before.
