I heard that it is probably one of the most toxic working environments. Exit seems pretty solid - Apollo, Angelo Gordon and the likes. Regarding compensation - I think they pay pretty well. I was reached out by recruiters a year or two ago and they were offering 120k + 100% bonus for associate one. I assume that the base has increased since then.

So what you mean is..... Very good

It's definitely one of the strongest names in Europe (despite not being a "megafund"), but I've also been told that it has a poor wlb

 

Not going to be as brutal as this but definitely worth speaking to somebody who has left the firm for a true flavour (you'll have a very easy time finding somebody as their turnover is the highest of anywhere I've ever seen)

That place has a good reputation, raising >£1.0bn closed-end funds so one of the biggest "independents" European PERE shops with Aermont and Orion.

However, very strong former Goldman IB culture due to the firm's leadership. As such WLB and average tenure is not the best.

I heard that they were prepareing 100+ page lender memos.

 

SB'd, this is helpful - those 100+ page memos sound like a pain tho haha
