Equity research internship at BB or IB at no-name?

Currently at a no-name bank in the IB division before I start my MSc Finance in Sep.

Is it worth leaving for an OC equity research role at a BB until the MSc, then get back into IB after the MSc?

Just thinking a brand name would look good on my CV, and maybe I can craft a story around wanting to get back into IB after trying out equity research.
