I interviewed there years ago, at the time it solely managed Peter Thiels personal money because all the other investors had pulled out. Strange and funny dynamic, I’ve never heard of someone running and staffing an entire hedge fund just for themselves. Traders said that you had to be on call at all times in case Thiel called you from some other time zone to execute a particular trade he wanted.
