The business of business is no longer just business. In today’s workplace, companies are increasingly distinguished by the humanity of their corporate environment. “Best Place To Work” recognitions are worn like a badge of honor, and rightly so. A supportive workplace brings out the best in people—and in companies. While Md7 may not yet have been officially recognized for this workplace achievement, we knew we’d arrived when during a recent hiring spree the majority of applicants we interviewed were referred by current employees.
It speaks volumes when you realize that instead airing their workplace woes over chips and salsa with their buddies, your people are extolling the virtues of a company they feel connected to. “My friend has been talking about you guys for years!” was the most frequent response interviewees gave when asked how they heard about Md7. And from what they’d heard, these people wanted in—bad. It’s no secret that our core values are a driver of why Md7 is so successful. In our workplace we value a balanced life, integrity, respect for the individual and giving back. We’re an innovative company that strives for continuous improvement. All the people who have thrived in this dynamic environment are the same people who have helped Md7 become a leader in a continually evolving industry. Because we manage the unique real estate assets of wireless operators, countless conventional real estate and legal professionals have successfully re-purposed their skill sets as cell site lease negotiators with Md7.
We are growing at an exponential rate. Our success is evidenced by the recent addition of 20 new lease consultants, and we’re still looking for 40 to 50 more professionals—mortgage brokers, title officers, IT and paralegals are all a perfect fit for the management of cell site leases and cell tower leases. Thanks to a lot of smart people who love their job, we’re bursting at the seams. And it feels great.
