At Gilbert CPAs, the commitment to excellence goes far beyond the numbers. This firm stands out by investing deeply in its employees, fostering an environment that feels more like a community than a typical workplace. Gilbert’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that when people are supported and encouraged to grow in all aspects of their lives, they not only perform better — they thrive.
A hallmark of Gilbert’s approach is its robust mentoring and coaching programs. From the moment new team members join, they are welcomed into an environment that values open communication, continuous learning and genuine support. Firm leaders are accessible, offering guidance and encouragement as employees navigate their career paths. The firm also offers workshops, collaborative group training sessions and one-on-one coaching to ensure that everyone, from interns to senior staff, has the tools they need to succeed.
This nurturing culture is beautifully illustrated by the story of tax manager Kyle Gabriel. Kyle’s journey with Gilbert CPAs began during college, when he completed five different internships to explore his accounting career options, including an internship with a reputable “Big 4” firm. However, it was Gilbert CPAs, one of his first internship experiences, that made the most significant impact. The firm encouraged him to pursue other opportunities, demonstrating a level of trust and investment in his personal and professional growth. Ultimately, Kyle chose to return to Gilbert, drawn by the supportive relationships and the caring company culture he experienced.

His story highlights Gilbert’s belief that success is measured not just in client outcomes, but in the growth and fulfillment of its people. As Kyle puts it, “I definitely had everything I needed to be successful here.”
