NYC is headquarters so there's definitely some advantages but LA office has some rockstar partners that routinely knock it out of the park on deals (e.g. Sun Country) - this is more a general perspective on things at the senior level
on the junior side, NYC produces a lot of great exits, usually a lot of associates leave for tiger cubs and etc., uncertain about LA office exits but most associates there are laterals, that office is a revolving door of people quitting and known to be the sweat shop even within Apollo
Wow, a sweat shop within a sweat shop?
Can confirm. Hell hole, yes indeed.

hah man...how scary is it to know the amount of power you got on here. People refuse to believe multiple times your warnings (fake news)...outright provide direct example now obsessed with seeking out more information.
That said based on everything said, I think this Partner would see this thread as a victory, have met people like this in finance they pride themselves in fear they instill.
Anyone have stories?
Any stories?
where did you get the $1.5 bil number from?
It's in sec filings, Apollo's holdings in sun country and mcgraw hill, among others
Apollo Heaven
Bump, interested in culture at their LA office and what % of US employees are based there
