I know someone who worked there. They are apparently nice people and early returns have been good, but they said very sweaty. They left because of that and because Rotunda started as a fundless sponsor and didn't understand market employment stuff

I heard way below market cash comp, unreasonable promotion timelines and some sketchier stuff like quoting carry value at 3x and acting like they were above market carry

If you have to be in DC then it is a limited pool but it sounded like a frustrating experience...

 

echoing the above. leadership are good people, but sweaty culture, particularly at junior level.
