Apparently depends on the office. London is known to be a massive sweat shop, although the deals are quite interesting and even though it's NY-based now, the European heritage remains strong (with a relatively higher share of capital being deployed in Europe vs. your typical US UMM).

Exits from London aren't bad though (anecdotally heard of BX, and then MM funds easily) 

 

Bump.

Interviewed with them a couple weeks ago for LON office and was told by a VP that culture had changed significantly after 3 partners left to build their firm.

Any additional info?
