UMM Fund Comparisons

Would love to hear about people's experiences at the various UMM funds (Hellman & Friedman, CD&R, Madison Dearborn, GTCR, Centerbridge, Roark, L Catterton, New Mountain, etc.) and how they differ from each other in terms of focus, strategy, culture, etc. Obviously, no one will be able to give a nuanced comparison between too many of these but I thought it'd be cool to compile people's experiences and thoughts in one place.
