PE Portfolio Operations - Lifestyle, comp and career path

Do folks have any experience or knowledge on what the work is like at a PE Portfolio Ops team? Do they have similar lifestyle to typical consulting houses (Mon-Thur travel?) How are they comped? Am guessing NOT at par with investing teams, but is that standard? What kind of profiles do they look for? Exploring this and have found very limited info. Would really appreciate any insight.
