Post Waivers and SODA

I have read with interest the FAA system
of waivers and sodas . I have a young son devastated by an eyesight problem .

If he was able to be certified using this system can he get a reasonable flying job?

Do any of the major US carriers recruit people with these waivers?

I can see how a major US carrier would accept this to keep a very experienced captain employed , but would they accept a new joining first officer with a wiaver?

I just wonder if this is a system which allows certification , but the unfortunate individual will find it very hard to forge a resonable career as a commercial pilot ?
