Wheelock Street Capital
Does anyone have any insight on these guys? Seems like a few Starwood Capital spin-offs. Do they have a team in NYC?

These guys are assholes. Stuck up bitches that do peanuts for deals and think they’re the next Jon Gray. Fuck them.
Yes, I interviewed and didn’t get the job. Still they’re assholes based on my conversation with them. You can decide for yourself.
They use recruiters I’m assuming?
Even the associates or just the MD's/Partners?
Well the founder used to be head of Acq at Starwood so...
So? I don't give a shit if you're Barack Obama just don't be an arrogant asshole. Not to mention, their firm is peanut in size, why the cocky attitude? Not like you're running 20B AUM fund.
Yes, recruiters only. I met with the more senior guys in Boston office.
Never heard of them but their website kind of hints that they haven't had the most successful last few years. I just wonder what their competitive edge is - what are they doing differently than anyone else? Looks like they put a lot of money out (and probably successfully) in 2009-12, and then have been struggling a bit to get money out the door recently.
They look at a lot of deals for us but never show up in a meaningful way. They're very basis conscious but also not big value add guys so the target is small.
Again, I have no knowledge at all, but reading between the lines of their website that all kind of tracks. Guys coming from a big shop with a culture of working really hard, who had a lot of success investing at the bottom of the market, and who raised a lot of money off the back of that success but who are having a ton of trouble deploying that capital because they never had a real investment thesis in the first place, and are having trouble coping with the influx of competition and capital driving down yields on core and core plus assets in the last five years. Makes sense that they'll look at everything in the hopes of finding something that is mispriced or has slipped under the radar, because they're used to driving juniors really hard.
I haven’t spoken with anyone there but it’s literally written into my contract that I can’t work there…
