TCW Direct Lending

Does anyone have any insight on TCW Direct Lending? My understanding is that they are a private credit alts shop and tend to favor more challenging/complex/risky opportunities as well as that their deals tend to be materially more expensive and often less flexible for the firms they invest in.

Any insights/thoughts/perspectives on the group re: investment style/approach, culture, comp, recruiting, etc... would be incredibly helpful!
