I agree, they are a great gig if you plan to stay and accumulate some turbine time.

Then, when you get a BE99 slot, you sign a six month training contract. When you get into a Metro, its another year with the company. Again, there's financial penalties for breaking the turboprop/jet training contracts.

Let me give you a couple scenarios. Go for a chieftain on the west coast, you'll likely get the BE99 within six months. If that's the case, the BE99 six month contract will likely expire at the same time your one year contract does.
You could also go to an all turbine base like SLC, or take an outstation to get hired right into the BE99. The six month contract will expire within the one year contract, but then again, most people in SLC get a shot at a Metro within 9 months of their date of hire, in which case, your new contract will expire one year from the day you pass your Metro ride.
