Thoughts on Brentwood Associates?

Hi all - looking for some updated thoughts on Brentwood Associates - would love some perspective on culture, trajectory, etc. How does the firm compare to other MM / UMM firms such as Audax, Marlin, Golden Gate, GTCR, New Mountain?

Thanks

Private Equity Mock Coffee Chat

“Jorge was very practical and generous with his time. He gave me a clear action plan: tighten my elevator pitch to under 2 min, do a weekly modelling case study, and prep technicals, market questions and behaviourals. His networking advice (always ask each contact for 1-2 more names, track fund closes to spot hiring windows, a list of London infra headhunters) was very actionable. He also referred me internally to Nuveen within a week. Only point to improve: I’m still waiting for his feedback on the case studies I sent.”

Doesnt come close to any of the funds listed. Just look at the size and date of the last raise
