Pros

Fantastic mission with real impact, growth opportunities, progressive culture, competitive benefits and pay. Hard work is recognized and rewarded!

Cons

Non-profits can be fast paced sometimes which can be a bit stressful, but there is a great sense of teamwork and very smart leadership.

Pros

Some of the Residents, the Owner Representative of the CDC and the Resident Service Specialists. The Maintenance tech is a good man.

Cons

Everything about the company. This company doesn't value their employees, at all. In the Philadelphia Area Management is the Worst. Low pay very heavy workload with no help from supervisor.

From your comments, it is clear that your relationship with your supervisor was not a good one. We are working as an organization to provide more training to managers in a variety of areas. As it relates to valuing employees, over the past 12-18 months TCB has taken a number of steps to continue to demonstrate how we value our employees. These include implementation of a new TCB minimum wage, a quarterly bonus program in property management, and increasing the company match for the 403b plan. We also survey employees so that we can get feedback and ideas regarding how we should look at improving the company culture.

Pros

TCB has many parts and takes on many types of development work. The company includes real estate development, finance, legal, property management, asset management, resident services, and corporate departments - all spread throughout different geographies. The experience there varies tremendously - as these Glassdoor reviews show - by which corner of TCB people end up in. The real estate development, finance, and legal departments are strong. They take on a variety of project types and allow for tremendous learning as staff grapple with extremely difficult deals. Pay is better than many non-profit developers but less than for-profit competitors.

Cons

Property management has long been a challenge. Its high turnover, overhead costs, operating expenses, and outcomes are a drag on the overall business. It makes development harder. It hurts reputation. And, the HR needs of a property management firm and a developer are very different. The spread of different needs across the organization have led to the creation of much organizational overhead and some lack of focus on core mission and business.
