MS Menlo in 2024
Wanted to hear some updates on MS Menlo in 2024 regarding culture, hours, and recent exits.
Heard they have mandated 5 days in the office, but is the culture still brutal? How's their protected weekend policy and is it enforced?
Based on past threads, MS Menlo Tech is the top industry group at MS and for many years has been the top tech banking group on the street along with GS TMT and Q. They're arguably a tier above GS TMT now that a bunch of GS's rainmakers have left. Deal flow has always been insane so the juniors get worked to the bone but learn a ton. How are things looking in 2024?
If you're interested in MF/UMM buyout (not necessarily tech), would you be able to exit well from MS Menlo?

Culture and Hours
Recent Exits
Exit Opportunities
In summary, MS Menlo continues to be a top choice for those looking to gain substantial experience in tech banking, with strong exit opportunities to MF/UMM buyout roles. However, be prepared for a demanding work environment with long hours.

Bump - heard limited M&A in the office as of late but not confident in the source / validity of the info as a warning.
