Nordic Capital / PAI Partners in the US

I understand that Nordic Capital and PAI Partners are big time players in Europe, but does anyone have insight on their US presence? They both opened up a NYC office in recent years and wondering what the deal flow is like, as well as culture and WLB given european background. Is comp similar to US MF/UMM funds?
