Career Resources
They love to hire out of undergrad and groom their people for career track roles. They also have a very large team (relative to fund size) committed to a unique sourcing strategy. I hear the sourcing stuff is actually pretty legit. I also hear they drastically, painfully underpay their people: probably worse than 50% under market.
$75K for IC is about right. Be prepared to work 80+ hrs. consistently. Ton of turnover this year. Inner circle type culture.
Mostly ops roles, some land VC/PE in other spots. I heard a lot of the carry is selectively given out to individuals with ties to LPs... total "Work hard, play hard" red flags culturally. No bonus. Strictly base comp..
@Kokomo have heard terrible things about pay (low base + no bonus) and inner circle culture. Check out their Glassdoor reviews and watch out for the two HR reviews to cover up a bad review LMAO grabs popcorn
