Also - is it a pain commuting to rye everyday for work from Manhattan? Ugh

 

Fund size has been growing seriously recently with just completing a $3.5bn round I think about doubling thier last. Comp package is very generous at the analyst level plus you already get carry.

Bought out one of their portcos at my current firm, and from what I understand they generated hefty returns there. Sharp folks, slightly buttoned up.

They doubled their fund at 3.5bn and I believe came back in the market after having raised a fifth fund just 2 years ago. The buyout insider article indicates returns for the prior fund was 50%+, now that is serious no matter how you dice it. I am pretty active in MM industrials and they are emerging very well as players in services and logistics.

 

Have a friend who works there. Seems solid on culture, he seems very happy, he said he had a solid levered co-invest opportunity and returns are great (have heard some absurd numbers lol need to dili. myself). Industrials focused but do cool stuff like Uber Freight. Depends on what you are looking for but great opportunity to learn quickly with a sizable fund $3bn+. 

 

I'm a mezz lender. In 2020 we worked with them onnonenof their portcos that was very mediocre - it was levered 5.5x and they wanted sub debt to get it up 7x. Business definitely could not support more than 4.5-5.5. found management to be a bit wacky.
