Pros

Not too busy, usual office hours. Strong DNA in breaking businesses up and managing the down turn. Investment team equals: running transactions to signing. No change to develop an investor mindset and skill set - one is project managing only with endless layers of management involved

Cons

Insane culture. Totally big boss dependent. Typical Investment theses: we can buy cheap, we can break it up. Stakeholders in a deal just don’t like your firm (reputation).

Pros

Significant scale and resources. Generally good team ethic. Very interesting part of private equity to work in. A very good place to learn a wide range of skills (e.g I came from a restructuring background but colleagues worked in FDD, CDD and banking previously)

Cons

Top-heavy organisation which leads to unintended consequences like competition for junior resources
