If they raise a payscale, they will likely be stuck with it when the downturn arrives.
If they sponsor pilot training to get through the hard times, they can terminate such a program instantly the moment supply exceeds demand.
It's basic economics. I am not sure they could simply "terminate" the program right after they have sufficient pilots though. They could reduce the amount of funding they put into it over time.
