Morgan Stanley London M&A Execution Team

Hi all,

I am joining Morgan Stanley (London) full time and I am in the middle of the team selection process. I am interested in the M&A execution team. What is the reputation of this team in London? I know it is elite in the US but is this true in Europe?

Looking for evaluation based on the team's culture, exit opps and exposure that I would receive as an analyst? There are other teams I can choose from so I am not tied to M&A at the moment, although it is at the forefront of my mind.

Thanks for your help!
