POTUS Exit Opps?

Hi everyone,

Long time WSO lurker here. I'm currently in an executive role at a yuge country, and I looks like I'm about to lose my job soon. I grinded HARD to get this role for the exit opps. Things were going so well, but now I'm not so sure. I still have a shot to keep it for at least another 4 years but I'm worried things won't work out. I feel like I'm running out of options, and I need some advice. Will I get auto-dinged if I end up leaving after 4 years? What do you guys suggest? Do I still have a shot in IB?
