The Backbreakers are resistant to his leadership at first. However, before long, they've warmed to their new leader. Many of them are thrilled to be walking the path of an anti-hero, lead by what seems to be a seasoned expert at the role.

That being said, the D'Amico family will be noting this. They do not appreciate seeing a rag-tag group that was destined for self-destruction suddenly begin to pull things together. Likewise, the Society is watching very carefully. They're content to allow Jason to carry on as he is for now, but with anti-meta sentiment rising, they will be monitoring him closely as they will not abide any breaking of The Code, even by outsiders.

Johnny Red-Eyes in particular just so happens to turn up where Jason at least once a week. Doesn't say anything, just smiles and gives a little wave before carrying on.
