Does high share of consultants vs IB guys have impact on the job itself? Would you say that they do something different because of that or is it still the same approach though with different cohort of people?

 

Kinda does but it's not a function of being mostly consultant, but rather they hire many consultants because that's the skill set the shop wants, which translate in very strong focus on commercial DD and comfort only with certain types of assets, and less focus on financial engineering… probably less pure financial technical work vs other funds
