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.
