Good friend is an MD there, can't speak highly enough of him, for what that's worth.
Used to be pretty focused on things that looked more like LMM growth buyouts (i.e. 20-50% growth, profitable, think similar flavor of things to Level / Five Elms / Radian). Lately their deals have had a more venturey flavor and I don't know how to assess it... they did at least 2-3 that I considered pretty low-quality assets but it's possible they've gone heavy with structure, etc. to counterweight that.
I think pretty big sourcing culture but they have a broader mandate than most (will do tech-enabled services, healthcare delivery, etc. v. just pure SaaS) which makes the job a little easier.
Probably the most conservative shop culturally I've encountered in the growth universe. The people had all the dryness / dullness of an overworked buyout firm employee whereas in most of growth you usually see a little more personality, jeans, etc.
Know from a handful of mutual connections that the firm has had crazy turnover the past few years, well beyond basic standardized 2-3 year in and out stints. On LinkedIn you can see major turnover from Assoc through Sr Assoc and even VPs which is always a bad sign.
