Anyone have insight on LongTail Alpha?

Looking for information on LongTail Alpha. Comp/culture/growth trajectory, etc.. I know it was founded by ex-Pimco PM based out of Newport Beach, CA and from what I read it seems like its a smaller fund , AUM just under $1bn, lean team. I may be wrong here, but would they classify as a multi-asset/quant fund? Do not have access to their performance history, curious how they have performed over the last several years. Any insight is appreciated!
