Associate Portfolio Manager
Pros
Working in the asset management with fellow co-workers who were enduring the same afflictions as you and having each other as a support system was the best that came out of such a negative environment where the concept of change was taken to levels that the human mind can't endure in a sustainable manner.
Cons
I became extremely disgruntled with the organization due to the lack of transparency from Senior Management. The lack of respect and appreciation for the hard working asset managers made me realize that Bayview does not offer a career path for its employees but rather a dead end job. The constant changes to squeeze every penny that they pay you for to then make drastic changes such as taking bonus pay to make you work harder for less money is the precise reason as to why I decided to depart from this abusive employee-employer relationship. This place would work you to the ground to the point where the employee feels like their mind and bodies are being cremated. Stop treating your Asset Managers like disposable objects you are steering your top talent away. The labor market is changing and it will not always be in your favor, value the good workers they are hard to come across.
