BrightTower IB

Does anyone have any true insights into BrightTower? Seems like a strong, growing tech-focused boutique closing some notable deals, with a slight focus on sponsor-backed assets/sell sides. They seem to have really built out their analyst/associate base with some strong talent. They have even taken people from top banks. Any insight on their culture, deals, etc. Limited info online even though they seem reputable. They also have closed a multitude of deals, but curious how they stack up. 

Currently at a strong middle market HC group at a larger Canadian bank. Would love more insight to potentially make a move if I get an offer. My goal is to be in PE one day, and I feel like HC and tech experience sets me up well. 

Let me know.
