Workout Loan Group/ Special Assets (SGA)

Hey, I am working at a DCM role. I found this job at MUFG with the title Special Assets for an analyst role. Wondered how comp is and how your opinions on this role and the type of exits I will get. Would I be able to transfer to an RX firm or a distressed fund. Would I get good experience. Or is this more like a risk position?

Would appreciate anyone’s help as I am really unsure
