Placed in Equity Capital Markets next summer, should I be upset?

Hello everyone, upon the placement day I landed in the ECM group which wasn't one of my choices/preferences. Can someone shed some positives on the group or does everything I can search and find on the internet pretty much sum it up.

No exit opportunities etc.
