FileVault not working

I have a MacBookPro 16-inch 2019 running Big Sur 11.1 with Intel Core i9. When turning FileVault on it doesn't generate a Recovery Key instead a dialog box informs me that a Recovery Key has been sent to my company/organization or school. The issue is that this Mac Book is my private device and I am the only user and administrator, I don't work for a company, school or organization that uses apple computers. If File Vault has generated and sent the Recovery Key I wouldn't know it sent it nor is any information on my computer for FileVault to know where to send the Recovery Key. FileVault is not encrypting anything.
