Pros

Steady flow of work, decent benefits, new shop and equipment

Cons

Management at the shop and corporate level is not good. Definitely a good ol' boys club. If you are friends with management, you get better treatment, more work, better jobs and are not held accountable for poor performance. Promises for pay increases never materialize. Shops are overstaffed so each technician is making less money, but as long as the shop hits budget, no one cares. You really are just a number at caliber. They only care about profits. The whole "caliber cares" and talk of being a family and taking care of employees is a joke. Morale is at an all time low. They think that having a shop lunch occasionally will make everyone happy. At least half of the employees in the shop are considering leaving. Only problem is that caliber has a monopoly on body shops so there isn't many other companies to work for. The deals they make with insurance companies take money of our the technicians pockets. Market leadership is mostly missing in action, and when you do go to them with concerns, they are brushed under the rug, or you are told "we are working on it" for months....very disappointed with how caliber turned out.

Pros

Benefits are good. Some effort for consistency. I like staying busy and there is almost always something to do. Some people are nice.

Cons

I really wanted to like this company. It’s very corporate. It’s very involved. There is a lot of micromanagement. People really do act like they’re your friends and they are absolutely not. It’s hard to work somewhere for so much of your time where you truly can’t let your guard down or get too close. Everyone talks between shops, centers, regions, etc. There’s a lot of gossip throughout the company and even if you don’t think it goes somewhere, it does. It doesn’t matter if you are good at your job or a good person because they don’t care about that here. You can be entirely awful to people here and keep your job for years! I suppose that con is actually a pro because it makes it very difficult for someone to actually get fired from this company.
