PSA, CommutAir Go-jet, PDT, Compass, SKW, any company getting close to a 2 year upgrade is only one or to bids away form a really junior bid due to the length of time it takes for an FO to get the time.
You can't quit a company for any reason that you knew or should have known before you got hired. Not doing your homework on a company doesn't count. If a big announcement is made and is a game changer you may could use that, but to just say I was a dumba$$ and now want a change won't cut it.
I really hope you're joking, he can easily say he was misled by recruiters. If that's his only thing he will have no problem getting a mainline job someday.
