We all saw the Apollo listing on LinkedIn… now, the question we all want to know, how shit is their culture? I know their PE group is known for having the worst hours in the business, how does this translate to RE debt?

Have you applied there and heard back?
nope
I like the “we all saw” lol. I never worked there but I do know a few folks there. I’ll say they’re extremely sharp, know how to make money, and are well paid. I did get the sense that they work longer hours than others. Now how much more? I really can’t gauge that. But they do a ton of interesting stuff on the credit - including mezz, pref, transitional bridge loans, and construction loans.

Do you just stalk MF LinkedIn pages for new job postings?
You do realize that LinkedIn tailors jobs that it shows you based on your industry, right?
cre-23 would you be able to share carlyle multifamily acquisition assumptions with me?
thats fair, email me at "sigmarevenue" at gmail?
I’m very close with an associate there who told me they work a lot (90 hours a week) pretty consistently. They get paid extremely well even in downturns, however. Their pay is in line with blackstone and Starwood and probably beats it in some years. They do a ton of interesting construction loans and you will learn from the best there. But brutal hours for sure.
How's the culture otherwise? It's one thing to work 90 hours with people that will verbally berate you and another to work with well-meaning people that you get along with. From a lot of the PE forum's stories, Apollo's PE group falls in the first camp. Is the CRE debt team the same?
From the people I’ve met there, they seem pretty nice. They grind but it doesn’t seem like it’s the same as the PE group. There was another associate I met when I visited their offices who had been there for 4 years and said it’s been a great experience so seems pretty decent.
With the firm's culture emanating from three ex-Drexel co-founders, two of which (Leon Black and Josh Harris) are by all accounts psychos / screamers, and the flagship group (corporate PE) being described as hell on earth...I'd be surprised if there's any group within Apollo with "good" culture...just "bad" to "really bad" to "really really bad"
I assume all 90 hours are in the office too? Or are people able to pack up and finish at home after 7/8 when all the big dogs go home
Not sure about this but I think my friend works from home on weekends

Anyone get an interview? If so, just curious? Did you go through a external third party recruiter, knew someone at the company, cold applied?
Cold applied to the analyst role
Nice, good luck
What’s your experience? Any reason why you’re applying for the analyst role instead of the associate one if you’re currently an associate?

Did anyone get an interview yet? Applied to the Analyst role but haven’t heard back yet.
Don’t think they’ve gotten back to people on interviews yet
They have
For experienced analyst or associate positions? Each may have a different timeline
Oh whoops I was referencing summer analyst roles. No clue about ft.
Please stop
Might’ve gotten denied. Cold applied from Target Uni and currently work in MF REPE, not sure who all got interviews and what your background is.
why do you want to transition from REPE to debt?
more interesting, higher transaction volume (normally), and at a place like APO can probably see more structures and asset classes
Denied from target uni and MF wow lol
I saw that lool 200 apps in under an hour
The sad thing is 3/4 of people applying don't even qualify
It was one hour from their reposting, the posting's been up for a while
Has anyone heard back for analysts? Also at a MF and target but haven’t heard anything
Anyone applying to 24 SA?
Where is the SA posting, I don’t see it anywehere
Lol this is for full time associate. 2024 SA is already full.
