I would start out as a FO in a twin-turbine a/c but was assured that I would be upgraded very quickly to a captain
What kind of turbine airplane? You may not be able to log SIC time in it. In that case, you may scratch around building multi-time on empty legs at best. Will you really get to fly? If the job turns out to where you end up as a SIC in a C-90 gathering little if any flight time, well, that may not be that great.

Insurance wise in the part 135 world, you are closer to being a piston twin PIC than a turbine twin PIC. Insurance companies like you to have some multi PIC time to cover you as a turbine multi PIC under 135 ops. You will also need 200 more hours to qualify for IFR PIC under FAR 135.
I am all for you going for turbines, I just wanted to point out some things you may not have thought of. Good Luck
