The co-founders were MD’s at OTPP, they’re very nice and accomplished guys with great connections a la Stephen Smith. They recently raised another fund at around $500m I think? Also trying to grow bigger having made some more hires in recent months. Pretty cool firm.

 

Really great culture - Seniors are chill to work with, care about junior development, and are all really sharp in their respective verticals. They do a lot of deep dives into niche sub-verticals that can sometimes be challenging to conduct due diligence in, so you have to be resourceful and think outside the box. Hours aren't too terrible as the seniors above VP all have kids so they're out the office by 5pm or earlier and depending on how deep you are in deals, you'll likely be working 9am-9pm/12am on weekdays with little weekend work. If you're into healthcare, financials, or consumers, and want to be in mm pe, probably best place to be at in Toronto.
