Ares SSG insights

Hey all, 

Got a first round interview with Ares SSG (formerly known as SSG Capital and based in Asia, acquired by Ares in 2020). Anyone has any insights to share about the team? Been working in finance for the last couple of years, and the importance of having a good team has become clear, so hoping to find out more about what the people there are like (any personalities that stand out for reasons good or bad), hours, etc.
