Municipal Bond Advisory Salary/Career Progression Info?

3.7 GPA from a highly regarded non-target in LA. Interviewed with a municipal advisory firm that essentially only finances bonds, they as a company are not doing any underwriting or broker deals. VERY small with only 7 people. Obviously very different and less prestige/glam than a municipal finance IB group. What's the ballpark comp for an analyst? Any insight on career progression and and possible exit opps? Thanks
