Pros

Work/life balance is awesome. Salary is great Family-like atmosphere Growing rapidly Cares about personal growth Upper management is very approachable Training is great - its changing while the company changes Many more - but I can't list them all. :)

Cons

Budgeting is hard - even though the ultimate goal is to make money for the partners I feel there are items being deferred that is not beneficial to the property or partners in the long run. Grace hill. Too many classes.

Thank you for your feedback! We understand all of the work that goes into managing a community and hitting the budget. The Community Manager position is a critical role in our company, and we are committed to providing rewards for those who excel in their role. Great advice to management! We will look at the number of Gracehill classes offered in the summer.

They have a lot to learn

Pros

Pay, commission, benefits are ok and there are some good people there.

Cons

They micro-manage way too much. They don’t have enough staff at any property. You can’t expect one-two people to run an office. You also can’t expect one person to work every weekend. The regional does not have a care in the world for her employees and makes it known. The regionals expect you to take all grace hill yet they don’t do it themselves as I have seen multiple fair housing issues. IT people take forever to get back to you, if they do at all. Again, they need more people but, don’t have the budget for it. Higher up management are allowed to bully and ridicule you in front of multiple people in meetings and when brought up to HR they again can’t care cause they’re understaffed. Also, there is no confidentiality at this company. Any complaints, suggestions or topics you’d like to keep private between you and your regional are talked about for all to hear. In all honesty the company has potential but, a very long way to go. I foresee them having to learn things the hard way to become a great company to work for.

Thank you for taking the time to provide a review on Glassdoor. Over the last six months, we have reviewed this feedback and have made changes in the Nashville, TN area in regards to additional support. We do have a standard process for how many team members are supporting a community and if certain circumstances we do change our staffing model. Human Resources has also recently added to the staff to support Timberland Partners. It appears that the overall support for the community you are working; it needs to be looked at individually. We are happy to do this, and if you could send an e-mail to HR@TimberlandPartners.com so that we can ensure continued success, we would appreciate it!
