Morgan Stanley Tech in Menlo Park

Past threads are a little outdated but was hoping I could get an update on the group? I know for sure that they are killing it, but does anyone have any idea about office dynamics re: buyside recruiting, product/coverage mix (I've seen people on LinkedIn write either Tech M&A or Tech Capital Markets, which suggests you get put into one)?

Heard second-hand that they bumped their analyst class from 8 to 10, but how will that govern recruiting i.e. more people going for roughly the same stuff? Is this overall a good sign; did they do it cause folks were leaving or they're hoping to bring even more business on?

Perhaps maybe also some insight on how they stack up against the noisy neighbors (GS TMT, Qatalyst)?

Really appreciate the insight, thanks a ton!
