[Please contribute if you can] Firms that hire post-MBA without pre-MBA experience at the same firm (e.g., not just "get an MBA and return"; people new to the firm)

I saw the other thread about direct promotes without MBA, and thought that, for those of us interested in business school, it would be helpful to have a list of our own. I will update the list here going forward. I am aware of a few:

Chicago / LBO

LA / LBO

NYC / Growth Equity

Boston / LBO

* Berkshire Partners

HBS publishes a list of organizations that hire on-campus but it includes 2019 FT hires or 2020 interns, so I haven't listed them as I'm not sure if you can tell which organization does which.
