Thoughts on Cap10?
Have you ever come across them? Founded a few years ago by former Apollo Partner, they just hired an MD from Blackstone. Curious to know about deal activity / culture / comp if you know.

One of their deal went south, the associated founding partner left and if you look at the team now most VPs, Associates etc are also gone.
They’ve also hired some interim Associates on temporary contracts and none of them were converted.
Fabrice (the ex-Apollo guy) recently did a podcast if you’re interested
Super useful thank you! Do you know why people have left - is it because lack of fundraising/carry prospect after that one investment (assume it was their very first one)?
Any insight on comp and culture for Associates and VPs?
Bump - I am curious as well.
Yes. I believe it was related to botching this
Don’t think you’re correct on those points.
Comp 100k base, Bonus up to 100%
They just hired an ex Partner from Blackstone
That seems solid vs. other mid market funds?
It’s about right for that kind of deal size which Cap10 does
MD, not partner.
*Fired MD, not Partner
I passed their modelling test. Anyone else also on to the next round?
Any colour you could share? Thank you
Have my modelling test soon - do you have any advice?
obviously I have not myself progressed that far but know people who have if you’re interested
They reached out to me looking for a VP in early 2023 and then again more recently. Didn’t engage on either but did open their presentation and can confirm out of the then 2 partners, 3 VPs and 3 Associates only 1 partner, 1 VP and 1 Associate remains. Probably lots of good reasons both professional and personal but just to be aware
New fund and hence too early to tell. There are a million funds that look like them in London, no clear differentiation / JAMMBOs.
as noted above, clearly had some significant turnover but unclear on why that is
I have taken the interviews (3 rounds) and happy to help if you are still in the process
