Thoughts on Oaktree ABF?

Oaktree is currently hiring associates for their ABF team and seems like they've been leaning in to grow their strategy. Does anyone have any insights about culture, performance, outlook, mid-level comp (e.g. do VPs get carry?), etc. Not sure how culture and prospects have changed post-Brookfield acquisitions.
