Is DCM a dead end?

No disrespect to DCM, and perhaps should phrase my title better so please allow me to elaborate. If you get into DCM, are you stuck in DCM? Where can you go from there. Can you move to HY? I have an interest in the group given it seems like a lifestyle role (can someone confirm this) and I like capital markets.
