EQT New York

Hi all,

I wanted to get some opinions about EQT in New York. I have some meetings with the infrastructure arm in NY, but am also curious about their PE/buyout business.

Does anyone have any insights or opinions on them? Are they well-regarded / have good performance / culture?

Thank you very much for your help!

General impressions based on limited interaction, I liked them. They have a flat structure, where it's Associate, mid level professional, and partner. Very nice guys. I'm sure there's different gradations of partner but I get the sense the Associates have outsize responsibility. I also get the sense it's guys who are actually doing the job and enjoy it, more so than jumping through the hoops of banking-->pe--> b school. A lot of these guys I think do direct promote (could be wrong, it's been a year since I've chat with them) and like the work and have good stability. They have performed well in buyouts and pretty well in growth but their growth is a bit more "let's get in on hot club deals" rather than anything special. Their office has an ok view of Bryant park which looks nice in the winter when you can see the people skating. They're in the grace building which is a plus.

Realize this isn't ultra-substantive but I know the feeling of waiting for info on WSO so wanted to give you what I've got

 

To add to the above, I only know 2 things about it unfortunately.

  1. A not-so-close friend's older sibling worked there several years ago. Culture seems to be pretty good, and hours are largely better than banking but in line with other PE shops. Would echo the above that associates get a lot of responsibility

  2. Fund is not afraid to pay up to get premium assets. I'm not sure if they have a differentiated playbook, but have seen some high purchase multiples on their deals. Not sure how that translates for returns overall, but seems like they're doing alright
