Moving to LevFin/Comp Target

I am a first-year analyst at a top FI BB (think GS/JPM/BAML) and work under a well reputed analyst who has historically done well in II. Cover a macro product (Rates/FX/MBS) and was wondering what comp would look like. Salary is street. We sit on the trading floor, but I know deep-down that SS research is not where I want to be for the long-haul (too much publishing, banks view it as a cost center).

Would either like to move into credit (LevFin/credit trading/syndicate) or into a trading seat within my product. FWIW, I am licensed, have a Bloomberg Terminal, etc. so it's definitely a FO role (but it doesn't feel like one - my boss/analyst is the only one who goes to client meetings/travels to meet with investors).

Curious if others have made a similar move and what to expect in terms of skill/title transferability. Also would like to know hours. Current hours are fairly chill - 6:30-7 most days, occasional late night 1-2x/month. I feel unchallenged and TBH am looking for something a little more demanding/financially rewarding.

Also would be open to buy-side roles at HF (basically anything in fixed income), but seems like I'm too junior for those right now.
