Career trajectory after a Workout group at a BB?

So I'm finishing my first year analyst rotation program at a BB and it looks like I'll be placed in the Workout & Recovery group. The group sat in LevFin next to restructuring and LLM ~1 year ago, but has since been moved to credit risk (I think some banks still have it in the FO). Not sure exactly where I want to land long term, but would a gig at a distressed credit shop in a few years be realistic? How hard would a transition to LevFin or a coverage group be? Any other interesting avenues I should consider taking? I'm also weighing the MBA v CFA right now, so if you have advice as it pertains to my particular position I'd really appreciate it.
