Networking for Full Time - Boutique to Boutique

Hi, I'm going to a top boutique (think Guggenheim/Rothschild tier) this summer but I'm considering trying to get into an EB (ie Evercore, PJT, Lazard) for full time. Given the small community, and that so many of the senior bankers at these firms have worked at other firms, is it worth trying to network while risking having my own firm find out that I'm networking with other firms for full time opportunities?

Do some analysts/associates or even MDs tell their friends at other firms if they know their summers are networking into their firm?

Would it risk the chance of me getting a return offer if they hear that I've been meeting with people from other firms?

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
