Applying to other banks FT as a SA

I am currently interning at a BB where rumor is they have to cut down on interns for FT spots.

I really would like to convert FT, but given they are limited on spots should I be applying elsewhere? Or not so much should I, but could word get back to my bank, and if it did, am I done for?

Looking for any sort of advice, trying to manage the risk of all possibilities appropriately lol.
