Pressure to do well as the people around you are high achieving

Great company! But some get burned (out)
Dec 18, 2022 - Associate in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Great mission and thematic investment approach. Seriously smart sector leadership. Upper management care a lot about its reputation! Often gives middle managers headaches and difficult expectations to manage. + Salary (great benefits and bonuses) + PE, BXG and RE business + Opportunity to advance
Cons
Typical PE hierarchical structure, best performing BUs get the most attention. Moving up requires the constant management and massaging of egos, in order to get noticed. Drive for attention, occupies a lot of time. - Life work balance - Back biting middle management and simmering feelings leads to poor reviews - DEI initiatives well intentioned, but mostly lip service

Great people. Demanding
Feb 4, 2023 - AVP-Operations in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
People are usually on call, and very responsive, and supportive. Work is very fast paced and exciting. However, the pace is not for everyone. The people are what makes the work enjoyable.
Cons
Demanding. Always on call and are expected to be responsive.

Pros
Very nice place to work, people there are very nice as well. Very big account doing very well over all.
Cons
Only thing, i could say is that they have no limits on events and meeting services, as for scheduling. To many last minute requests. Also they have only one locker room for both sexes and no place for the catering team and pantry team to take a break or lunch.

Great exposure to all sort of resources in the finance/PE world
Cons

Good people but really bad infrastructure that needs improving
Jan 30, 2023 - Software Developer in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Excellent ppl. Culture is great.
Cons
It's not a tech company so it would be less optimal for junior engineers to learn good coding habits and standards. People here value engineers less than financial analysts for sure.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Work anywhere else
Feb 10, 2023 - Software Engineer in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Lunch credit of $20 when in office
Cons
Poor work life balance Emotionally and socially stunted coworkers Outdated tech stack High deductible, high premium health insurance HR is discriminatory against disabled ppl and extremely shady Unwelcoming environment for POC
