Oaktree Information - Culture / Lifestyle / Experience

hey everyone, looking for information on Oaktree's culture / junior experience, particularly in the distressed fund but also its other groups. For such a large fund, there really doesn't seem to be a ton of up-to-date info, mostly stuff on SSG and on internships.

Would love to hear about culture and lifestyle and whether they are two-and-out or support staying. thanks.

Spoken to people in the REPE team, sharp guys. Seems to have a solid culture with a lot of work. Diverse backgrounds, not all solely IB. West coast schools heavy
