Pros
Top guys running the credit investing side are incredibly good + thoughtful, which I think is whats enabled the firm to grow as fast as it has Unique effort is put into cultivating junior talent
Cons
Both types of "politics" (both #1 interpersonal/ego management and #2 political) #2 is prob not an issue if you lean more republican, but (speaking for myself) its been a sort of bizarre experience regularly hearing coworkers and certain seniors share fairly "out there" views along the lines of US covid policy being a conspiracy to hurt trump, trump actually won in 2020, vaccine skepticism, more recently pro-russia/putin and anti-ukraine sentiment, etc. If you are generally aligned with that persuasion or don't mind hearing it and keeping your mouth shut, then great place to work due to all the other positives
