I recently met briefly with a guy who has been there for a while and he seems to love his job. Currently off traveling so I can't sit down and talk with him about any real details, but he said did mention possible internships. I like the idea of a firm that has a primary objective (after making returns of course) to help better the world in some way. As it is right now I'm more interested in hedge funds in the long run, starting at a bank most likely but I would like to learn more about the PE landscape after having met several professionals who all seem much more fulfilled than most bankers I talk to.
Bump - I know the firm well from an industry reputation standpoint, but was wondering if anybody had insight on culture, hours, facetime, whether it's banking 2.0 or not, etc.

One of my friends from my IB analyst class I think went there for his PE associate program. He was a great analyst and fun/nice colleague from what I knew about him / remember from the time. I think he may have put in a couple of years there and now is at some fast growing / hot kinda fintech start up (I think called Pilot) that is raising big rounds at high valuations from what I’ve seen
PM'd you.
Bro you've been tricked by Ben Matan Miran, the guy is a crackhead posting on WSO. Literally none of what he writes is true and everything is factually wrong.
$1.4 bn is the latest fund size, not AUM. They seem solid / have had good returns, though I think the hours can be rough
Have heard mixed reviews on hours. Know anything about interview process and COMP?
