Large Cap Infra PE London

Does anyone have updated views on large cap infra PE players in London? I am trying to understand whether large cap or UMM is where I’d like to place next, hence it would be great to get latest views on pay/hours/culture at the large funds. It would be great if people could leave a comment on the below funds (not exhaustive so please don’t crucify me if I have forgotten your MF)

Avoid going to GS / MSIP / JPM for buy-side unless you are willing to take a pay cut and have typical sell-side culture.

Heard a lot of good things about Stonepeak, they are very good with a lot of sharp people. 

Ardian is a good, but very cheap firm where you will take a pay cut. Also, very little diversity. Their team in London is 10 dudes, a massive sausage party. 

Antin is good and pays well with good culture but apparently, performance has been meh in recent times. 

Brookfield is a sweatshop but very active in the space. Wouldn't want to work in Canary Wharf tho.

Blackstone Infra is good but a sweatshop. They are also notoriously known for demoting people, so if you have 2 years of experience and no buy-side experience they will put you as an Analyst 1. 

KKR is a weird one, haven't heard too much of them. Their hiring is also very odd, half the Associates / VPs come from top-3 BB and the other half comes from RBC
