Toxic culture and unsustainable work environment - Senior Fund Accountant TPG Employee Review

You may be brought in at a relatively high salary, but you’ll need to account for minimum 60 hour weeks and likely zero raises even with . Your work hours will be expected to match those of the investment teams on both coasts (9-9 is standard in calm periods, few of which existed when I left). They will continue to hire team members in NYC for double your salary who often work half the hours. HR preaches diversity while only hiring minorities into coordinator or EA roles that have no growth opportunities. Management makes it very clear back office should be grateful to be allowed in their presence, the FW office is the ugly stepchild. The toxic culture is palpable, everyone has seemed more and more miserable over the last few years and the response has been additional layoffs. This is all in addition to the standard woes of PE that are alive and well at TPG; the “boys club” culture, rampant elitism, forget work life balance you will not have a life, etc. They seem to believe if they use Goldman as a direct funnel for new hires they won’t realize they’re being overworked and have managed to build an even worse working environment with worse work life balance.
