Yes, way too soon to be choosing cargo vs. pax, or any particular airline.

The majority of us don't end up working for our "dream" airline anyway. The last few years was an anomaly, historically you don't get to pick your major airline, they will pick you and you'll just be thankful that somebody did.

With that said objectively the notable differences are...

1. Cargo pilots don't have to deal with certain pax hassles like TSA, at least not as often (and yes they can fly in pajamas). In this day and age pax pilots essentially never personally interact with problem pax... they have people who do that on the ground (managers and cops), and the cockpit door stays locked in flight.

2. Cargo pilots objectively have more redeye type flying overall than pax airlines. Yes you can avoid it with seniority, but it will take more seniority than at pax airlines in general.

3. Cargo airlines have less stringent safety rules. Mainly rest rules, and hazmat cargo rules (no idea if that had anything to do with current events today, but I doubt it since it looked like an engine failure.) UPS has had recent fatal accidents related to both night flying fatigue and hazmat (battery fire). Both UPS and FDX seem to have more recent fatal accidents per capita than major pax airlines (not counting regionals, since they're not really career destination airlines).
