Offer Advice FT S&T to IBD

Offer for FT BB NYC S&T, don't want to start off in S&T since I want to have flexibility by starting off in IBD.

Should I accept and try to move to IBD after i'm in the firm or accept and still look for an IBD role?

End goal is LevFin, I could try to get staffed on the distressed debt desk. Or start in March and try to move before S&T training program in June. I just don't seem to see much precedent other than staying for two years then moving internally.
