Bayview Asset Management

In reading any job descriptions for open roles at bayview/lakeview, keep in mind they over promise and under deliver.  The majority of upper management  in the home “flipping” department of bayview are beyond inexperienced. In attempt to cover their own incompetence,  micromanagement runs rampant throughout the ranks. The “help” from management  is very misguided.  There are constant contradictions to ‘SOP’s’, it makes management seem like liars.  The home “flipping” aspect of bayview is very small.  Despite them saying they do heavy volume, the numbers have been low the last few years. Do not bank on commission to cover a low salary. This is not a collaborative work environment. In this position you are the boots on the ground in the region. Someone sitting behind a computer hundreds of miles away will make random judgements on projects. Depending on the mood, you might be able to close on an house or not.  This is a  place to start in real estate. They are a notch above a wholesaler business, in some places they do light renovations . 

A typical work day is about 8 hours with flexibility to get personal work done while making up the hours later in the day.  Work ours will sometimes go beyond 8 hours due to job requirements.  I improved my skills PMing projects that used new DevOps  software such as Jinkins.  Assume additional responsibilities such as managing a support team assist upper management with the development of SLAs and other documents aid with IT team management.  The culture of the company can be stressful at times but overall its a happy place to work.  The hardest part of the job is encountering some managers that are not prepared for the difficulties of the responsibilities which are part of the positions they hold.  The most enjoyable part of the job is meeting my goals and overall success of the team and seeing the company prosper based on the delivery of my efforts and those of my colleagues.

It’s disheartening to have worked at a company where the message of "people first" stops at surface level. While leadership, particularly at either a VP or SVP level, often speaks about investing in talent, their actions say otherwise. Internal growth feels like an afterthought — recognition and advancement are consistently handed to external hires rather than the people who’ve shown results and deep institutional knowledge.

There’s a carefully curated image of company culture, but those of us within the walls know it’s more about optics than authenticity. No matter how much effort is put into engagement or collaboration, it’s clear it’s not truly valued — just presented well for appearances.

If leadership spent half as much time developing their existing team as they do polishing presentations and hiring new faces, this company might actually reflect the values it claims to stand for.


What is the best part of working at the company?
Bayview Asset Management is a wonderful place to work.  They treated me with respect and kindness and never hesitated to say I was appreciated and a valuable employee.  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I really didn't experience any stress at Bayview.  I enjoy fast-paced and deadline driven work environments as well as working on different projects at the same time so I don't consider that stressful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Excellent.  The managers I worked under provided great communication, showed appreciation for job performance and I felt like they really cared about me personally.

There was no concerted effort to train or promote from within.  Management clearly favored certain individuals over others and made no attempt to hide the blatant favoritism.  I had exactly 1 performance review during my entire time there.  The Management Team I reported to made no effort to train, follow-up or implement any initiatives to promote career goals and advancement.  I was lied to on more than one occasion as it related to moving on to other, better positions.  I also later found out from someone directly involved in the process that I was denied a promotion to another role I wanted, it was my next progressive career move, because I was "too valuable" in the role I was in at the time.

Stressful, no support from management, swearing is a norm, gossiping about other employees. Managers also should be trained on working with employees, just experience or being long term at a company does not guarantee leadership. Micromanagement, criticism of work, favoritism of others was clearly seen. Swearing at office should not be encouraged. Training of managers to learn how to manage employees. Feedback on managers should be done. HR needs to introduce policies to help employees, not only work for management.

I was very happy to be part of the excellent team at Bayview Asset Management. But unfortunatelly the job was a temporary contract.
It is with much enthusiasm that I am writing to recommend the company.
Bayview Asset Management is an investment management firm focused on investments in mortgage credit, including whole loans, mortgage-backed securities, mortgage servicing rights, and mortgage-related assets. We provide a wide range of services, including managing pooled investment vehicles, providing mortgage-related advisory services, and operating a top-rated residential and commercial special servicer.

Love the perks the company provides such as discount websites, discounts on your cell phone bill,e tc. Also, I appreciate the out of toen training opportuities I have been sent to, I have learned alot from it. I must admit the Hurst office runs a little different than the main office in Miami. It seems more difficult to move into management in this Hurst office even if you are qualified. Other lan that I have no other complaints about this company.

I was there for a year and a half and the very small raise I received was still less than what brand new hires were being paid which is very contradicting to trying to promote employee appreciation. I felt very unappreciated for that reason alone (rightfully so). Chances of ever moving up in the company are next to none - there is one supervisor who has only been in the position for about 6 months now.

No formal PMO structure on the business side.  Manager of PMO has no project experience, certification, or knowledge and has not taken the time to implement the formal procedures for the group in over a year.  Expected to work over 10 hrs a day, eat at your desk, and take the fall for his/their poor decisions.  Most of these reviews seem personal, so my advice would be to ask about the procedures and guidelines in advance/during interview; you'll see what I'm talking about.
