You get the same licence from both routes, so go figure, I went modular all the way with a small school with 5 aeroplanes and it never hindered me.
I got on to an Airbus at a major airline with 250 hrs and I didn't even have to pay for a type rating.
Cabair/OAA's line of 'you can only get a job from integrated' is running so tired, so don't listen to it. Fact is, no-one is recruiting at the moment. Low hour people won't be looked at for a good while yet regardless of the old mod v int argument. The market is flooded with experienced guys, and will be as more and more airlines go bust. I'd say at least 4 years.
Good luck
