Ignore title (currently a VP in mining IB), but stay the hell away. Same management team that ran Waterton (had to wound down fund and "rebranded"). Absolutely terrible pay, not allowed to leave the office during the day, founding partner is a psychopath.

i've heard the same... terrible culture and terrible management, poor comp, one of the worst shops on the street. 

what did you hear about founding partner (singular)? i thought it was plural being founding partners. there are only two of them as FPs now for Kinterra
