Insurance-backed shops (Apogem Capital, Kuvare Asset Management, etc)

Apogem and KAM are the investment arms of insurance companies (NY Life and Kuvare respectively) with sizable AUMs and strategies in private credit. Anyone have any insight into hours/comp/culture at either or any other insurance-backed shop?

Also interested in how insurance shops compare to more traditional private credit shops in terms of day-to-day work, career progression, and overall experience.
