Deutsche Bank Hong Kong - still worth pursuing now?

Hi all - I'm currently working at the Leveraged Finance team of a tier-2 global bank. Got an offer from Deutsche Bank Hong Kong - global credit trading/special situation team to focus on illiquid /private debt space. The team is one of the most profitable across DB Asia. But given the recent cuts on equity-trading business and on-going restructuring at the group level, is it worthwhile to take the shot? Anyone with any insights to share towards the platform, the team, and career path?

P.S. not unhappy with the current job, but interested in transition into credit investment/hedge funds in the long run
