Are they a VC firm you would like to work with? It is as if you are taking investment money from them if you are an EIR. I would do the same due diligence you would do if you were taking capital from them.

Talk to some of the companies in their portfolio and see what they think of the VCs.

Good point emilam. I've reached out to a few of their portfolio companies and had a good conversation with one. That CEO gave a glowing review, but one doesn't constitute a pattern, so I'll definitely keep asking around.
