Bain Capital Investment Team

Anybody have any knowledge of what working in the investment team (as distinct from the Portfolio Group) at Bain Cap would be like? Hours, pay etc.?

I know they like to hire consultants for this team as well so what is the work like – is it less focused on IB skills and more on market/business based DD?
