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.
Yeah and then you come out on the market with a Phenom 300 rating.... Good luck. Not even the airlines would be interesting in you and if they are there is a risk you have to start from the bottom in a TP operator or as a Cadet in a low cost A320/737 operator.
