PFT no longer exists in the airline world, but can still be found in 135/91. It's not uncommon for 91 pilots to buy a type to enhance their career prospects.

If you do it, I would pay the extra to get an PIC type though. If the company has an issue with that, walk away.

Turbojet ME SIC would put you at the head of the line for regional employment once you get 1500/300 or so. Depending on your current prospects for acquiring ME time it might make some sense, as much as I hate to say that.
