Warburg Pincus - Tech Team London

Hello guys,

These finance masters of the world are recruiting. Any ideas of the culture, comps , and previous track record?

They told me they are real sharks, and that you get killed? What does that mean? Can't be worse than what I'm already at (120 hours week).

Thanks!

Doesn't do a meaningful number of buyouts, mostly growth in EM telecommunications companies like Airtel etc. Think they've done like <5 Tech buyouts in Europe in its history. US Tech Buyouts is done by the 'Strategic Investments' Group or something

It's 'worse' in pure buyout than every other large cap tech fund and is 'worse' than every other large growth fund as well vis a vis its growth investing.

However, they pay £300,000 all in comp for A1. Hours are extremely bad however

Not London specific but for WP tech as a whole, they are most definitely not "worse" just employ a fundamentally different strategy and approach. The firm's broad focus is on growth and growth buyout investments, despite their fund size. They'll occasionally do large cap buyouts (bid on Coupa) but the tech team specifically leans towards growth equity . Have had great performance in their investments so very inaccurate to classify as "worse" than other investors.

Yes, definitely very good. Wrote in a flash, should definitely have been more nuanced in my answer.
