ER associate looking for advice

Senior ER associate at a BB covering a niche sector that I really enjoy. Anyone have experience going from ER to IB? Did you regret it? Do you wish you went right to buy side at LO/HF? If I were to make the switch to IB it would only be the sector I currently cover, so I think I’d have a good shot
