Latest on Blackstone Infrastructure?

Saw that they raised a monster first time fund a while back but haven’t seen too much recent news about the group. Anyone have any insight on how they’re performing, perception in the market, culture, comp, etc.?

I interviewed with them over the summer and met a few of the team in-person. Probably talked to half of the team. Culture seems pretty stiff but sharp people who work hard. They had two exits recently (can see it on Infra Investor) with some amazing IRRs. Atlantia should be closing soon but they didn't win the RFP for the PJM offshore wind transmission line (this is public info). London team is growing (they poached two MDs recently).

Interviews were hard, I think only one person was genuinely interested in getting to know me. 90% technical for an analyst role. Didn't get the offer so can't comment on comp.

 

it's similar to the interview you would get for the corporate buyout team because it's essentially just corporate buyouts but for infrastructure companies 

for infrastructure related questions you need to understand the risks/rewards/idiosyncrasies for different infrastructure asset classes but it's more of a check the box item

they would hire a technically sound candidate with no prior experience in infrastructure or bare minimum knowledge, but helps if you have P&U/Industrials SA coverage group experience

in terms of culture it's very Harvard/Wharton dominant and stiff, can be a turnoff depending on how you look at it
