Pros

There are some amazing people on the team who deserve better. I hope they realize their worth and get out as soon as they can.

Cons

Listen to all the other accounting reviews here because they are true. There’s something seriously wrong in that department and it starts with the managers. The controller is the most toxic individual in a management position that I have ever met. The way he speaks to his team is disgustingly disrespectful, inappropriate, and unprofessional. His behavior is deeply concerning and contributes to the hostile work environment within the accounting team. When bringing up this concern to the assistant controller I was told that he’s just a jerk and that’s the way it is. Favoritism is huge here. These two are horrible at actually managing and they blame it on the staff and seniors as just being idiots. The amount of times I heard “the staff are a bunch idiots” is embarrassing. The team has huge potential if it weren’t for the people leading the department. The toxic experiences I had are not isolated incidents, but rather a consistent pattern that impacted team morale, productivity, and overall well-being. Employees in the department have been reluctant to voice their concerns due to fear of retaliation or further exacerbating the situation. I was not afraid to speak up and they were threatened by that. I was let go without warning, was never put on a PIP and received zero training and had to figure out the job all by myself. Caliber as a company does not care about their employees and doesn’t see them as human beings. They offer no severance, only wanting their employees to work their lives away to make the owners rich. I’m truly disappointed in the executives. The company is like a boys club. Everyone knows everyone somehow and I do not foresee any changes in management happening because the nepotism here is strong.

Pros

Great place to work with great people. They serve the community and grow the wealth of people around the country. The company is growing quickly and headed in the right direction.

Cons

Growing companies are best for people who want to create new systems and aren't looking do do something the same way every single day.

Pros

Coworkers are friendly. Great stepping stone for young people to get exposure to the industry and learn what not to do.

Cons

Has not had a profitable project. Was a real estate investment firm, ran into an old coworker that said they are now investing in crypto. When I first began at Caliber I was shocked at the spending. I thought the firm must be making a ton of money or is burning cash- Quickly learned that they were burning cash with zero oversight.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. Caliber has evolved meaningfully over time, and experiences can vary depending on role, timing, and business cycle. Over the past several years, we made a deliberate shift toward a more relationship-driven, long-term sales and service model designed to better align with our investors’ expectations and our fiduciary responsibilities. That transition was not the right fit for every professional style, and some team members chose to move on as the organization changed. Like all real estate investment managers, we also navigated an exceptionally challenging period from COVID through rapid interest-rate increases. During that time, our priority was protecting investor capital and managing assets through market disruption rather than forcing liquidity or distributions under unfavorable conditions. We appreciate the feedback and wish you success in your next chapter. Chris Loeffler, CEO
