Pros

Great company at the forefront of private equity. Extremely talented and smart people working there. Everyone vested in company well-being due to stock awards.

Cons

Very difficult to move up once established in a position and becoming a little too bureaucratic.

Free food. The list of positives ends there.

Absolute dumpster fire. No direction, no organization, and no clear path forward. It was an incredibly frustrating experience from the start
