Insights on KKR's HC team

Does anybody have some personal insights? How does it compare to other MFPE HC teams, hours (I know it used to be sweaty, but I don't have any new info on this), culture, investments and PortCo work after close (I know Envision was a bad deal for them but interested to know how other investments have done), and do you get to work on both buyout and growth deals?

I've worked with them a lot and Momtazee's built a great group. Contrary to what most people think, I don't think they've slowed down much since his departure.
