Genstar vs HIG vs Golden Gate
Anyone have any insight into culture, comp, fund performance and b-school placements for these firms? Focused on SF specifically.

Genstar >> Golden Gate >>>>>>> HIG. Genstar is crushing it. Can't speak to the culture directly but have heard from others that it's good. Pay up for quality assets. Pretty good placement into b school. Golden Gate places pretty well into GSB/HBS but has had an insane amount of churn. So many partners have left over the years to start their own funds. Seems like a tough place to work. HIG has had solid returns but is known for being incredibly cheap (underpaying for assets and its junior employees). Know multiple people who worked there (only one in SF) who hated it. Can't think of a less appealing "higher profile" firm to work for.
Are these having coffee chats or interviews soon/next week?
GGC and HIG interviewed on cycle last week.
....which two - HIG and Genstar and not Golden Gate?
