A BEST PLACE TO WORK
We’re committed to providing a safe workplace where our employees feel their contributions are valued, they are empowered to create positive impact, and can grow their careers. Along with our people-first culture, it’s what made us one of GlobeSt.’s Best Places to Work for the second consecutive year in 2024. Watch the video or read more to learn what it means to us.

Corporate Philanthropy
At Berkadia, we believe people matter and know that one of the most important investments we can make as citizens is in our own communities, so giving back is an important part of our culture.
Employee volunteerism and charitable giving at Berkadia supports a variety of social issues and needs. Through partnerships with existing community organizations and through our own programs, our employees are helping people, changing places and enabling progress in communities worldwide.
As part of our commitment to giving back, we empower our team members to dedicate their time and resources to supporting the charitable initiatives of their choice through a Matching Gift Program, Gift of Time Program and Grants Initiated by Volunteer Service (GIVES).
A Life Changing Experience
After partnering with Habitat for Humanity to sponsor a single-family house build in Austell, Georgia in July 2021, Berkadia employees were so moved by the experience that they decided to do it again. In August 2022, Berkadia sponsored Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta’s second ever two-story single-family house build in Austell, Georgia and in 2023, sponsored the first house of the Marietta Public Service Housing Program for a middle school teacher in Marietta, Georgia.
Since 2021, Berkadia Atlanta has fostered meaningful connections with new homeowners and volunteers while also forming impactful bonds with each other. Berkadia strives to create affordable housing solutions, give back to communities and increase the possibility of home ownership; through strong partnerships with organizations like Habitat for Humanity, we have witnessed the power of these possibilities.
Berkadia Way
Our culture, or Berkadia Way as we know it, encourages us to truly see people as people, with unique needs, challenges, and objectives. We take this into consideration when working with each other, engaging our clients, and supporting our communities. Thus, instilling a mindset that fosters our shared commitment to self-accountability helps us see our impact on each other and adjust our efforts accordingly.
