Hedge Funds within Asset Managers

Was wondering if anyone had any information on hedge funds within large AM (Blackrock, Wellington, PIMCO, GSAM, Etc.) . Are these funds actively managed or are they generally more FoF type set ups. Additionally, what would pay and exit opps be from these types of groups. Do they recruit undegrad? Any information is helpful! Thanks!

@ValueJedi most of their credit opportunities funds are tied to private credit (and especially bolstered with the tennenbaum practice which basically shuttered almost all public-side activities); BlackRock doesn't have a huge presence in public-side traditional L/S credit but their event-driven funds do invest in it (think they were in PCG bonds for instance).
