Worked with them on a couple deals. Do nice deals and have good returns but from the impression I got seemed to me they work extremely long hours with a banking-esque culture. E.g. calls scheduled at Friday night with catch-up call on Saturday morning and Sunday as well.

Happy to be proved wrong, as this might have been a one - off due to live big deal going on tho

 

Friend of mine interned there (Paris office), extremely long hours but people seemed nice from what she said

Pays 210k all-in first year from what I heard, take this with a pinch of salt tho
