I am wondering if any monkeys could shed some light on the associate-level culture at Byron Trott's merchant banking firm BDT Capital Partners / BDT & Co. There has not been much insight about this on WSO despite the firm's flagship fund growing quite quickly; perhaps this is due to their lack of website / press releases / marketing. Any related information would be appreciated.

WLB is pretty top notch and they care about the experience that their people have. To that end they do a few things:
This was super helpful, thanks for sharing. If you have any other insights about the firm I'd love to hear them. Definitely is a place I want to learn more about.
Why can’t most “able to” finance firms follow this model lol
I recruited on-cycle two years ago, so my experience may be a bit dated - generally they only pull from BB/EBs through HSP. They grew quickly so I'm not sure whether they still have that small firm feel. From what I gathered through the process, the advisory isn't traditional buyside/sellside but rather retainer clients, so the work is similar to working with a portco. On the investing side, they do half minority and half majority buyout so you do get that breadth of experience. Culture seems great - the associates work very hard but everyone I talked to seemed to love it and were super technical. Pay is street or more bc you get a COL bump. They also emphasized that they wanted to invest in their employees and for them stay for the long haul. Only a handful of people have left the firm before, which speaks to its culture but also means not a lot of data points to go off of. HSW placement top notch if that's what you choose but they're not 2 and out. I think one or two went to Booth but that's because they wanted to stay in Chicago.
Would appreciate any further insight if anyone has any!
Any idea about analyst comp?
