Yes, historically ULCC's have taken the cheap, minimalist approach to new-hire training by virtue of hiring largely current 121 pilots from regionals. That's who those programs have been designed for in the past. Mil/135/91 are going to have to paddle pretty hard to keep up, and a CFI's hair would be on fire.

They can of course adjust their programs as necessary if their new-hire demographic changes (likely).
