For new guys, you will be on a different payscale that does not differentiate between PAX and FRT. You are just FOs. There is nothing wrong with staying on the freighter side of the house. Only issue is that the trips can be longer and your schedule will have a lot more disruptions...a lot more. But, if you live in base or you don't want to leave then that is an option.
