Tumbleweed is doing the right thing by asking questions and doing a little research before making any decision. I would think that QOL would become an issue at least. The difference between flying for a scheduled airline and a non scheduled airline is huge. The other posters are right in their support of turbine PIC time, IMHO. If you think that being away for a 14 day trip is bad, keep in mind that junior guys can also be out back-to back and be gone 28 days or more. This is a volatile industry to say the least, especially right now. If you are flying left seat and making enough to salt a little away for the bad times and furloughs, I'd stay and keep doing it until the window opens to make the jump directly. Just my 2 cents.
Good luck in whatever you decide!
