Anyone have an recent impressions of BX Tac Opps? There are a couple of older threads but sound like the group has evolved recently given changes at Blackstone generally (e.g. spin out of growth/venture into a separate strategy)

It is an amazing shop, Bain special situations does more credit like, while tac opps and BX will do more equity like investments (less debt), but can do whatever they want. You will do equity deals and learn how to do private equity just like you were at Blackstone, but then will also do other funky and innovative stuff.
