Pros

Benefits Time off Bonus Structure Growing - with C- properties only

Cons

Executive leadership - fail to communicate. There are nepotistic relationships that exist, resulting in failure of corrective actions on ineffective or incorrect processes are done. This relationship causes a decline in moral, it is visible and seen by everyone, resulting in a closed door policy versus the claimed open door policy. Executive leaders should not fraternize at all. Employees are dropping like flies and walking out of the properties and corporate. A beloved CAM apparently voiced her feelings and in three months she stopped performing and quit. Next, training is inefficient. In a all hands meeting the training and development director position was split into two directors roles, in which he no longer trained, because in transparency he incompetent - yet they spun it as a need to split the role due to growth and not is lack of performance ( see above I’ve nepotistic relationship). It was a topic of discussion regarding the disgust of that spin in 80% of the properties. Additionally, it should be noted that if you are a Calcap (previously someone referred to it as calcrap on a different post I read - but truly is applicable. You do not associate or discuss anything Calcap related to any of the sister properties.

Pros

It was a good work environment, positive team, CEO and partners are all highly respectful and knowledgeable in their field. I generally felt respected and valued at CALCAP.

Cons

I worked for the Lending division which had a new CEO. He came on at a challenging point in the market but had big ambitions. Unfortunately, CALCAP Lending failed and went belly-up. Everyone in that division was out of a job. It possibly could have been avoided had different decisions been made earlier but I admire that they were a small fish in a big pond competing against loan companies with massive warehouse funds. They were a scrappy team and maybe sometimes things just don't work out. Regardless, everyone in that division was eventually out of work. I respected the leadership team and Ed Aloe is a gentleman and a great CEO. Unfortunate it did not work out but definitely wish the company all the best.
