Vector Capital 2026 Updated Views

Saw that they were historically (like 10 years ago lol) viewed positively here but sentiment has gotten worse in the last 3-4 years. What's the updated read? Know they did the SingleStore buyout and an Australian take-private last year and then a carve-out from KKR earlier this year.

How do they stack up vs. other tech PE shops? culture, hours, exits, comp, whatever. Would appreciate any color if you’ve interviewed there or know people at the firm.
