I currently work as an associate at a major Project Finance bank in NY (think MUFG/SMBC/CIBC/RBC/CACIB/Mizuho type of place), not IB. I am looking to exit to infra PE at places like IFM Investors, Omers, CPP, I Squared (not targeting mega funds). What type of deal-flow culture and work-life balance can I expect at these places?
