I intern at a middle market private credit firm right now. Hours are 50-60 a week for my superiors who came from IB.
which firm? pm me?
I think this will highly fluctuate. There is so much competition in PC space, I am sure everyone is getting grinded.

I do. I’m a senior associate and the dollars per hour feels unbeatable at 50-55 hours per week. The volume of deals means you learn a lot, people get annoyed as the transactions end up looking pretty similar after a while, but it doesn’t bother me too much as every deal has some sort of twist
which firm? pm me?
any chance you could be a little more specific on the type of work you are doing day to day?
going into the space would like to learn more

Just got a PC role in my inbox from benifit street partners for an associate role at 150 base with bonuses. Dont know know about culture/hours, but base alone is pretty standard with IB associates (im sure bonus is different however)
