What does the Syndicate desk do?

Noobie questions, hoping someone can help answer.

Is syndicate just spending all their time talking to the buyside about pricing live deals? How much time and effort do they spend at actually keeping up on the deals / buy-side holders about deals priced previously? What are the exit ops 2 years down the road?
