I began working here seven years ago when the company was still very small. I was attracted to Bayview because I could see there was a lot of opportunity to grow. Especially if you were willing to put in the effort. It's exciting to work here because the organization is fast-paced and management acts upon ideas. There are few layers of management and little bureaucracy, the emphasis is on getting things done. My job has changed over the years and I've had the opportunity to work in a variety of roles. I've always felt it's important that your values jive with the company in which you work; I feel that my values and Bayview go hand in hand. I like the way they commit to their employees, the focus on work/like balance and their commitment to the community. You hear about The Bayview Way, which I interpret as seizing opportunities. Bayview has a philosophy of looking for opportunities and acting upon them. People who are successful in Bayview know what is expected from them and go about getting results. I like the fact that the company provides those opportunities and recognizes and rewards them. I also like that despite the company's growth, management continues to retain its small company culture. From the town hall meetings to the year end party, management stays close to its employees and makes an effort to understand what they're thinking. About four years ago I had the opportunity to be part of the Silver Hill start up. Looking back on it, I'm very proud to have been part of team that launched the business. It's incredible to think how we started as an idea and now we are a major force in the small balance commercial lending market. |
