Based on the most helpful WSO content, opinions on Cascadia Capital seem to be mixed. While there isn't detailed information in the dataset about the "gaslighting thing" or specific recent experiences, one comment mentions a negative perception of someone associated with the firm, which might reflect on its reputation for some. However, no concrete details about the interview process or work environment are provided in the context.

If you're preparing for your first-round interview, it might be helpful to focus on general investment banking interview prep, such as technical questions, behavioral techniques, and understanding the firm's industry focus.

Moncler, congrats on the first round. I'm still waiting to hear back after a networking call. Re: the gaslighting thing — I know someone who was there during that period. She said it was a specific group issue, not firm-wide. But also said culture can be intense. Not a bad place to start, just not a long-term spot for everyone.
