From chats with other people from my banking class, have heard hours are bad, but not Apollo / H&F level. General consensus among my friend group - from worst to best hours (each line is a general bucket)

Apollo / H&F
BX / WP
TPG / Advent / Bain / KKR
WCAS / Permira / CG / EQT

Small sample size, should be directionally helpful
