I Squared Capital updated views 2024

Recently raised a huge $15bn fund and seems like recent performance has been stellar too with high-teens IRR, but noticed a few threads from earlier years criticising senior leadership and mentioning huge turnover. Looking for any updated views on the culture and hours for analysts or associates.

They’ve also recently built up an analyst program, would appreciate any insights on it as well.
