It has been long (and hotly) debated as to the worth of safety pilot time as far as getting a job.
The debate isn't about if you can "legally" log PIC as safety pilot (you can) but is it useful to help you land a job. Again, the topic has been flogged to death several time. The short answer? It depends
But more to your original question, I have eyed that place. I like that they have a more diverse fleet of senecas - a bit more "real" twin than the trainer seminole. I even think a few might be certified for known ice, although being in florida that's not much of an issue.
Any way you get it its still Multi time which will meet hiring mins, insurance, what have you.
As far as getting a job "paying to play" isn't near as good as getting legitimate PIC time like Amerifilight, or other 135 operators. Truthfully it just depends on the hiring need of the company and the other people they have interviewing.
