Balyasny Asset Management - Update?

Doesn't seem like there's any recent posts regarding the firm - was reached out to by an internal recruiter for an associate position in a North American city that they don't actively market that they operate out of (assume its a new office being established).

With that being said, any insight into comp / culture / hours / etc? FWIW, I'm fairly comfortable in my current role (coverage IB), but found it interesting that they're looking to set up shop in my home city and looking for a role ideally from the coverage group that I'm currently in.

Thanks in advance
