Does currently working for a sweaty and understaffed firm carry any weight when recruiting for a bigger firm/team?

Not really from personal experience.

Only if the firm has prestige / a good reputation independent of its sweatiness

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
