San Francisco PC Shops

(Mods would be great if you could please keep here -- didn't get any active responses in the job search forum)

Hey, could anyone share what PC firms have an active presence / office in SF, and the specific strategies if available? Have seen a couple threads, but after doing some research looks like many of the named shops don't have any offices. Any info is highly appreciated!

Potential names:

  • Sixth Street, KKR (no SF?), HPS (no SF?), Blackstone, Monroe, Benefit Street (no SF?), Alliance Bernstein (no SF?), Angel Island, Silver Point
 

Based on the highest ranked content on WSO, here's some information that might help you out:

  • Sixth Street: They have a significant presence in San Francisco. Sixth Street is known for its diversified investment strategy, including growth investing, direct lending, and structured equity.

  • KKR: While KKR is a major player in private equity, the context does not confirm an active office in San Francisco. They are known for leveraged buyouts and growth capital investments.

  • HPS Investment Partners: There's no specific mention of an HPS office in San Francisco in the context provided.

  • Blackstone: Blackstone is a well-known firm with a broad investment strategy that includes private equity, real estate, and hedge fund solutions. However, the context does not specify if they have an office in San Francisco.

  • Monroe Capital: Monroe is recognized for its direct lending and opportunistic private credit investing. The context does not confirm a San Francisco office.

  • Benefit Street Partners: There's no mention of a San Francisco office in the context.

  • AllianceBernstein: Known for global asset management, including fixed income, equities, and alternatives, the context does not confirm an office in San Francisco.

  • Angel Island Capital: No information is provided in the context about Angel Island Capital's presence in San Francisco.

  • Silver Point Capital: The context does not provide information about Silver Point Capital having an office in San Francisco.

It's important to note that the presence of offices can change, and firms may open or close locations. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it would be best to check the firms' official websites or reach out to them directly. If you're looking for more detailed insights or experiences, perhaps some of the users on the forums with recent activity in the job search or private equity sections could chime in.
