PARSIPPANY — Transwestern today announces it has been named one of the “Best Places to Work in New Jersey” by NJBIZ for the fourth consecutive year. Each of the past three years, the publication has ranked the commercial real estate firm among the top two large companies on the list. Transwestern is located at 300 Kimball Drive.
The award, which will be officially announced along with the company’s 2017 ranking at a ceremony on April 26, honors New Jersey companies that show dedication to their employees’ growth and quality of life.
“Transwestern believes the key to success in this competitive market is building a collaborative culture that fosters innovation and empowers each and every member of our team,” said James Postell, Transwestern Partner and City Leader. “We’re honored to be recognized among companies in the state that are truly dedicated to cultivating a positive workplace environment.”
Transwestern’s New Jersey team members provide brokerage, property management and construction services for office, industrial, retail and healthcare properties. Some incentives the firm provides include full healthcare and benefits packages; two personal paid days off; eight hours of paid community service; wellness activities including nutrition sessions, competitive races, and in-house yoga; paid training and skills development; certifications and memberships; formal mentorship program; quarterly young professionals’ events; holiday parties; and social events such as an annual boat cruise and team lunches.
The selected companies were ranked based on each company’s policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics, as well as an employee survey conducted by Best Companies Group.
In addition to this latest award, Transwestern has been recognized nationally as one of the 100 Best Workplaces for Women for two consecutive years by Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work®, as well as one of the Healthiest 100 Workplaces in America by Springbuk. Across the river, Transwestern’s New York office was named the No. 1 Best Place to Work by Crain’s New York Business.
Since opening its New Jersey office in 2011, Transwestern has established itself as a leader in the state’s commercial real estate market, leading the leasing, property and project/construction management for several significant projects, including the transformation of 300 Kimball Drive in Parsippany into a first-class, multi-tenant office facility.
