NYC UMM Reputation

I am in process of lateraling from my current shop and am somewhat deep in the process with a couple of the below firms. Wont specify which one, but was wondering if you can provide some color on their culture, returns, bschool exits and anything else you think is relevant.

Really? I know there are former consultants so was that someone a former consultant that struggled with the hours? Know someone from IB that works there for over a year now and she/he loves it there

 

Sorry for piggybacking on this thread, but what are some other UMM funds in NYC? I feel like my background is not pedigreed enough for MF, so want to target UNMs. New Mountain and Veritas also seem to be super hard to break into, so curious what other funds would be classified as UMM. Judging on most recent fund sizes, I’m seeing Jordan Company, Towerbrook, Oak Hill, Arsenal, Harvest (just going down the list from PEI). Are these funds considered UMM?
