Don't worry about it. Not knowing your friend it's hard to say but I would guess that it is more to do with some underlying social issues that he has as opposed to his times that cause him to be shunned by his fellow crew members. You never know, it could even be something as simple as smelling bad or constantly farting in the cockpit. I once flew with a CA who had gas issues and I wasn't exactly thinking "I can't wait to get on the ground so I can go out and have a drink with this guy..." Some of my flight school buddies went the "low time" route and never had a problem with the vast majority of CAs they flew with. Sure, you're always going to have the occasional nasty CA but that can and will happen regardless of your times. I've personally only flown with one captain who has complained to me about the "low timers".

If you're lucky enough to be hired with "low time" be modest, well prepared, safe and always be open to learn and you will be fine.
