Ares Management reviews

Entire experience there will depend on who you report to. Cycled through some great leaders as well as some so bad that I contemplated abandoning the industry. Some of these leaders are no longer with the company, so credit to HR and upper management for taking action. However for juniors, can often be too late

Work-life balance can be a challenge; long hours are the norm, especially during deal cycles. Limited upward mobility unless you're in specific teams or have strong internal connections. Management communication could be more transparent. Culture can feel overly corporate and political at times.
