yes
Yes there are jobs, you just have to know where to look, have a good network and luck plays a part too. I've had friends who left flying school straight into an airline job without having to pay for any ratings.
As for leaving your job, I'd advise you keep your options open and do flying on the side, nothing is as frustrating as looking for a flying job when you have no steady stream of income.
One thing I've learnt about flying since the flying school days is that patience is a virtue, always required, tenacity too and having a thick skin will get you far in this industry.
All the best!
