The company saying I'm not supposed to fly on my own time doing private flying. I told her its non commercial I'm not a CFI, so i can't even instruct. Don't yearly flight times and duty times only go towards commercial flying and not recreational? I was trying to look it up, unsure about it now.

I'm in the Saab but ill be fine. There's a mix I think most low time guys are on the Saab, not sure what's left on the 1900.
Nothing like reserve to slow progress in FLL when I first got hired. Most low time pilots hired were going to be fine but shifting in schedules put a lot of them on reserve when they held lines after a while. So unfortunately for most it's just a luck of the draw.
