What does Spirit shutting down mean for new pilots?

Hey everyone, as I’m sure nearly everyone is aware Spirit is shutting down. As an aspiring pilot who is going to start training soon, I can’t help but think of the implications of this. Of course, I firstly share my grievances with all Spirit employees and pilots affected. But, I’m also aware this will result in many well trained and experienced pilots starting to apply for other employees. With this, I’m making an educated guess, that as supply increases it will be much harder to secure a job and said job will be likely to yield less benefits. As you might be able to tell, I haven’t researched this much, but if any of you want to share you opinions or advice it would be greatly appreciated.
