Teal, Becker & Chiaramonte, CPAs, P.C. (TBC) has announced that the Firm has been named to Albany’s Best Places To Work by the Albany Business Review.

TBC, the area’s largest accounting and advisory firm, is one of 30 Albany-area companies to be included on this year’s Best Places to Work list. According to the Business Review, more than 120 companies were nominated for the award. The Business Review teams with Quantum Workplace, a research firm which compiles the results based on anonymous employee surveys.

“Having our employees nominate us for an award that recognizes our company as a top employer is always an honor, and to win it amongst such a large pool of candidates is truly remarkable,” said managing partner, James W. Drislane, CPA.

“As shareholders, we realize that the success of our goals to move this firm forward depend on our ability to maintain a positive corporate culture and to provide our clients with quality services,” Drislane continued. “With our growth in the last year through new hires and expanded service lines, it is especially humbling to know that our associates enjoy coming to work each day and that they feel satisfied with their jobs and the atmosphere at our Firm.”

Now in its 10th year, Best Places to Work has become a showcase of companies and their success in making great workplaces. The Business Review will honor the 30 winners at a lunch event on December 6th and highlight their best practices in a special publication, available that same day.

With over 80 employees, including 55 CPAs and a professional staff that averages nearly 20 years of employment at TBC, the Firm credits much of its success to the dedication, commitment, and longevity of its employees. The firm regularly hosts employee outings, promotes wellness, and has a year-round commitment to work life balance. Employees are given support for the CPA Exam and other professional designations, as well as opportunities to further their industry knowledge through Continuing Professional Education (CPE) courses and conferences, both locally and nationally.
