What's next step after GS/MS/JPM Structured Credit?

Hi! Just got an offer for GS/MS/JPM structured products (basically structured credit), and I was wondering what are my potential next steps? I cannot get return offer (sponsorship reasons).

Should I just try lateral for full time for structured products at another BB? Heard that BB structured products don't offer the best WLB or Comp. Or should I try to go to structured credit at MF?

I am sure that a lot of you guys have a much deeper understanding about a career in structured products. What do you guys think?

Hi Prospect in S&T - FI, no, I never sleep and so I can respond to any lonely threads (like this one) at all hours of the night. Impressive, I know ;-)

More suggestions...

Hope that helps.
