IMO taking an off-cycle internship would be stupid unless you were 90% sure you'd get an offer. Risk-to-reward is not at all in your favor. Those are solid MM names, lateralling when the economy is in a better state is likely easier than converting an off-cycle, is significantly less risky (with MM you've broken in, with an internship you could not convert, and then you're more than a year out of undergrad with no formal way back into the industry potentially in a recession), plus you'll stack more paper which is always nice.
Not too familiar with off-cycle internships / the reps you'll get / conversion rates so take that all with a grain of salt, but just my two cents.
Appreciate the answer, looks like I'll be riding this one out

You're describing a shaky economy... that's even more reason to stick with the FT role. Also, there's always the risk of having to go through more interview processes to then land a FT
Also, it won't look good to quit a FT role for:
a) an internship
b) very soon after starting
