Mantle Ridge Capital

Does anybody know about Mantle Ridge Capital? I keep getting asked to go interview there but not sure if it is even worth the time. Heard rumors that the guy starting it completely f****ed his only associate, there was a ton of turnover already, and can't get anyone to join. Obviously hard to know the truth lol so please DM me if you have any info.

You mean the one run by Paul Hilal? I thought the sole purpose of that fund was an activist play in CSX to get Hunter Harrison (RIP) in as CEO? Oh and the 5 other directors but still doesn't the fund only hold one position?

 

Paul presented at a conference last year and gave an overview of the play.

Mantle Ridge is literally a SPV (special purpose vehicle) - long CSX. I'm not sure if they are deviating from that strategy, but i highly doubt it as thats a huge industry no-no. investors did not sign up for anything other than the Hunter Harrison play.

curious what they are hiring for.

What are the stories

At Pershing Square, the stories were how he was the incompetent middle manager who knew nothing about investing, with the personality of Donald Trump, that was forced to be tolerated because he was the founder's childhood friend.

Then he gets pushed out, starts his own business, and lies to the one guy working for him and screws him over - paying him nothing - literally no bonus - despite making a few hundred million for himself.

 

I am watching this closely because it is so interesting. The limited partner community is upset with Hilal for lying about Mr. Harrison's health during the capital raising process.

I have also heard about high turnover.
