Middle Market IB Trading Desks?

I'm curious if anyone has any insight on working at a MM IB in S&T. I've got a superday coming up for a junior trader role at a MM bank. I'm coming from private equity, but I'm much more interested in trading or sales at this point in my life and struck out at the BBs.

I assume the there's quite a bit less volume, but more responsibility.
