Can anyone please comment on life at LGT now, especially at the analyst/associate level? How is culture / hours, comp, performance etc? Currently in undergrad (ignore title) and have always been curious about them. Especially since they just opened a new SF office.

Anecdotally in Switzerland their comp was below market.
Happy to hear from anyone with more information
If anyone has insight on NYC/SF comp would be much appreciated
Heard from HH total comp for associates is close to $300k
Understood they might be new to US but any insights on how well they perform in Europe and Asia would also be very helpful
LGT is not new in the US

Know the firm well.
Great firm with a strong culture. Company currently growing from a SME-type firm to a international and more institutional player. Comp somewhat underwhelming on analyst level but scales rapidly afterwards with well above average comp down the line. Hours are very team dependent. Investment team 55h-70h maybe 80h during peak deal activity.
Very helpful, thanks so much for the insight. Any color on what analyst base/progression looks like?
Can only give my view based on my interaction with them in Europe.
Decent fund with a big focus on culture and providing good WLB. Pay is below market, think A1 in London is like £55k with 20-30% bonus. Even for seniors, it does not get good, but I guess you get compensated for culture. They are good in credit, less so in PE. Probably don't / are not active in direct PE, more secondaries, etc.
From which year are those numbers? Seems low.
This year, have mutual friends who works in the London office
Would question that credit is better than PE. LGT has been in PE for the last 2 decades or so and has built up a strong reputation among GPs. They only recently started to go into credit. On comp: Don't know their UK comp as my info is based in Switzerland. Very strong compensation there and on par or even better than direct PE funds in Switzerland and roughly in line with US-based BB IB comp.
Any thoughts on similar players like HarbourVest, Hamilton Lane and Adams Street etc
How would you compare LGT with GS AIMS?
Bump on LGT - heard comp in Switzerland is good. Looking for VP intel especially.
