Whitehorse (HIG Credit) - Thoughts?

Looking for honest feedback on Whitehorse (direct lending / private credit arm of HIG) - especially Miami office but in general is great too. I know both HIG and its distressed arm (Bayside) are sharp-elbowed cultures and sweaty. A recruiter told me Whitehorse isn’t the same but I take that with a grain of salt.

Any detail on (i) culture, (ii) comp, (iii) hold size, etc?

Thanks all.

Interviewed there. MD started off saying they work hard. Split b/w Orig and UW. They actually have senior MDs on the underwriting side in addition to the originator. Deal team would also have 2 more people at the junior level (VP/Principal and Associate / Sr. Associate). Seemed like a rough culture. If you want to go through that might as well try to get the best brand you can.
