NEW YORK, Dec. 05, 2016 -- Transwestern today announces it has been ranked No. 1 on the 2016 “Best Places to Work in New York City" list by Crain’s New York Business, marking the third time for the commercial real estate firm to be recognized. Transwestern was chosen out of hundreds of companies from various industries across all five boroughs. The honor follows a series of triumphs for Transwestern, including being named one of the “100 Best Workplaces for Women" by Great Place to Work® and Fortune magazine for the second consecutive year.
"It is a tremendous honor to be named the top company to work for in New York City," said Steve Purpura, Northeast market leader. "This reflects how our collaborative approach creates an enjoyable and rewarding environment in a highly competitive real estate industry."
Transwestern drew special attention for its unique compensation program for brokers, including salary and bonuses; formal mentorship program; paid time off for community service; wellness program including massage therapy six times a year; and young professionals program providing quarterly networking, charitable and educational events.
Best Companies Group conducted the two-part survey process. Each company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics were evaluated, accounting for 25 percent of the ranking. An employee survey accounted for 75 percent. The combined scores determined the final rankings, which were announced Dec. 2, 2016.
