FS Investments reputation, culture?

Hey everyone, so I came across this firm headquartered in Philadelphia, FS Investments formerly known as Franklin Square. They are relatively new, not even 10 years old, yet they have grown exponentially to about $18 AUM.

They are an alternative asset manager specifically focused on lending to companies in the middle market. Interestingly enough, they've partnered with GSO/Blackstone in the credit lending space. Just want to get an idea of the reputation of the firm. How well known are they? And what is the culture like?

Thoughts?
