Are they mostly direct or secondaries? Can anyone speak on their secondaries/co-investments side of the business?

Believe they are winding down their RE business at least in Europe from a close contact I have who works there in London. Person had a good experience overall and said lots of camaraderie encouraged thru plenty of team events etc pre-covid.

They aren't winding it down but there is a changing of the guard. They made a couple of really recent hires, parted ways with the former European head, and moved one of the Asia heads to Europe.

Had a friend who worked there post MBA. Quite hierarchical org structure, very painful IC process (word format, process oriented) and Zug is apparently mindlessly boring. Good for a stable job as they have a massive AUM and a variety of rotational programmes across assets. Maybe best for late 30s/40s rather than for the Analyst programme.

This must be dated. The IC memos are definitely on PPT. I think the Analyst program is really good if you want broad exposure in investing. Never been to Switzerland, but seems great if you like the outdoors.
