Carlyle Credit London
Hi all,
Any updated views on the culture of Carlyle Credit team in London (specifically the Opportunistic Credit / Special Sits)?
I see a bunch of posts from ~2023 saying it's a sweatshop/horrible culture.
Thank you very much!
Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific updated information on the culture of Carlyle's Opportunistic Credit/Special Situations team in London beyond the general sentiment from ~2023 posts describing it as a challenging environment with a "sweatshop" reputation. If you're considering this team, it might be worth reaching out to recent alumni or current employees for firsthand insights, as team dynamics and culture can evolve over time.

Yeah it's tough
Anyone heard back?
FYI its like 70% 'special sits' (mostly in form of stretched unis or 2L etc.) / 30% direct lending
Any insights into the team?
By all accounts its a top decile sweatshop. Decent experience but go in eyes wide open.
Dreadful culture with quite a few toxic/arrogant characters at the principal level and above. Lots of rotation as people burn out
There is a reason they have been in the market for new hires for over a year now
