Crossover vs. Traditional VC

Curious about the differences between working at a large crossover fund (Altimeter/Coatue/Greenoaks) versus a traditional venture firm (Sequoia/Accel/a16z). How much does pay differ? Hours? Culture? Do they recruit from different backgrounds/places? Is the day-to-day work different as well? Sorry for the question spam and thanks in advance to anyone who can help answer these questions!
