Can't speak for the culture but I regularly work across from them and really like them. Theyre one of the best acquistion/borrower side firms there is imho.

I would like to echo this, GDC is usually one of my favorite firms to work across as borrowers counsel.

Very demanding, esp of associates, and very siloed. No one knows what anything else is doing at the upper ranks.

I’m in the biglaw hiring process through an outside recruiter. It’s so frustrating because he’s having these conversations with the firm and only paraphrasing the gist of them to me. He says he can’t forward the exact emails. Is that BS? Why can’t I see what the firm is telling my recruiter?
