Pros

- Attractive work life balance for PE firm - Friendly colleagues

Cons

- Place runs like a family office, decisions are taken by the founders and lack of delegation authority - Over hiring of people in high positions that are unnecessary or not capable. No reference checks done to ensure these people are the right people to hire - Place where being a good corporate citizen is more important than being a good investment professional
