General Atlantic - London

Have seen a few threads on GA but none focused on the London office. Just wondering if anyone had any insights on culture/hours, deal flow and fund performance (i.e. carry)?

I'm under the impression that their track record is pretty good given all the "prestige" around the name but I can't find any data on their funds and I saw on an old post someone said the European team was weak / carry was underwater...

Thanks!
