Arcadia Capital is a small, lower middle market investment bank in Brickell. They hired 10+ fall interns early October this year (unpaid). They recently lost an analyst, this shop has around 10 people. Seems suspicious to hire so many fall interns so last minute. Any thoughts?

I don't have an answer to your specific question, but I spoke with several former employees of the firm and they all told me the same thing: it's a scam firm. They did not pay annual bonuses and verbally humiliated people with zero protected weekends. 4/5 people said the same. This happened to people at analyst level.
HOLY FUCK. They hired 23 UNPAID college kids to promote their LinkedIn posts. How is this legal 😂💀…
Mad the misfortune of participating in their interview process.
As others have pointed out, the firm seemed like a total shit show.
I actually love Arcadia Capital! I went into the lounge and took all of the Werthers original caramels.

This has to be a joke.
Their pay is way below street and no one on their team has any pedigree.
Great firm!
