I currently work in Commercial DD for PE. Can anyone explain what the major differences are between my role and an analyst at a PE shop? Or even an equity research analyst at an HF? Thanks!!

Analyst /associate at PE shop is probably running the model, talking directly with the bankers and sellers regarding all kinds of diligence issues (commercial, financial, operational), running other diligences processes with other vendors, and potentially reading other CIMs if the deal is not as advanced. Don’t imagine they are running full fledged interview campaigns for their commercial questions

Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.
