Incoming SA at an EB RX group. Concerned that the group might be overstaffed because there's basically no RX activity right now. Any thoughts if this will affect return rates?

Same, interested
I think staffing levels for analysts will be kept fairly constant. With most rx analysts leaving for buyside gigs etc I don't think there will be a material difference in return rates unless they severely overhired for your class which is unlikely given your recruiting was likely wrapped up prior to the pandemic (correct me if I'm wrong please). I'd think about whether your bank increased lateral analyst hires during 2020 in anticipation for rx but I didn't really hear about a large uptick in staffing there especially at the junior level. The SA gig is there so that you convert to FT ideally for all parties involved. Don't dwell on this topic much as you have little control over the outcome but just remember you're there to get hired FT.
Depends what shop. For example, I believe HL sees M&A and RX as a complimentary way to hedge the business so they try to keep a full roster in both in anticipation of a variety of market conditions.
