Toxic Midlevels?
Hey everyone - so I work at an UMM fund that’s been around for a while. Not sure if it’s the DNA of the fund but, from everyone else’s experience, is there a ton of insecurities at the mid level? I feel like everyone lies to everyone, mid levels argue all the time, etc. Feel like as a junior, I’m the rope in tug a rope.
100% agree, I also think we are now more than 1 full year after return to work…with WFH and no one being in the office there was way less drama that you would feel and now with everyone being back there’s so much more office politics
Purely my own experience, but as you scale up the fund size, the politics get worse and worse. Hard to keep everyone aligned / playing on the same team when you're working in a mature fund that has more limited upwards mobility where 5-10 VPs are fighting over 2-5 Principal roles.
Probably not the place to find a long-term seat if the politics are that apparent.
Interesting. Didn’t think associates had to deal with that but I guess it’s just part of the culture
