MIRA reputation?

Please share advice about culture, hours, comp, prestige, etc. I have an SA offer at JPM/MS/PWP and was wondering if I should take Macquarie MIRA infrastructure PE instead. I went through an accelerated process. I don't mind being "pigeon holed" into infrastructure. Thanks.

I only know them by reputation, but hours seem to be pretty good and comp is competitive. (London office)

I don't know... Yeah. Almost definitely yes.
 

From those I’ve met, MIRA seems to have the same stiff culture and tough hours that exist at many other infra shops… not sure if others have heard differently as of late but there’s a reason why funds with ex-Macquarie folks leading have the tough reputation they do. Could also be people combining MIRA and MacCap into the same bucket when these are distinct groups within Macquarie and I’d also imagine they have different cultures (although I’ve yet to hear good things about MacCap culture / WLB as well).
