Full time corporate to IBD Internship

Guys I need an opinion. I have been working as an analyst in corp. dev. for a FTSE100 corporate for slightly less than a year. I have a full time contract there, however just received an offer to join a small IB boutique. The IB position would be to join as an intern with a 6 months contract and with low chances of getting hired afterwards.

Is it worth it to leave a full time job for an internship just to get a first experience in IB??

Cheers.
