For the rookie pilot, I'd still see NJE as a great training institution and a kick start to the corporate and business jet world. 3-5 years at NJE and you'll be loaded with good training and flying hours, and your next step is to enter a better paying large cabin business jet operator and get your command a year or two later. NJE pilots are respected at the private jet management companies and they'll be happy to welcome them on-board, upgrade and remunerate according to equipment and client. NJE can function just like some of the airlines, as a stepping stone, that benefits the pilot. For the more experienced corporate pilot, I don't really see any good reason to go for NJE, unless you're unemployed or desperate for the 6/5 roster style offered. For sure you wouldn't go to NJE for the money - even before considering the "on-shore" setup NJE operate with.
