Credit to IB

Currently a level 4 analyst in Credit being promoted to PM soon. I have talked to people about IB but us going into a recession makes me think its not an amazing time to make the switch. Should I wait until Q2 next year or atleast end of Q1 to make sure we are not in a terrible recession. Very safe at my current job, dont want to move and be let go due to layoffs and cost cutting.
