You need to properly bleed them and after that I would give it a couple hundred miles. My guess is you will have a lot more confidence after the hydraulics are sorted.
Have you checked your brake fluid reservoir to see if your indie bothered to top it off after the service?
And for your question about the ignition. With the ignition off, you can still get fluid through the system but with a lot more effort, with the car on and the vac boost assist you get a lot more pressure through the system ensuring all the air is bled out of the line. It can be done with it off, but it is far more advantageous and a no brainer to do it with the engine on.
