When a company is paying you to get experience, when they really don't even need a person in that seat, consider it a good thing for you. It's better to make a little money, and not have to pay for that experience. Plus you'll be jet-set for the check-ride and already familiar with the aircraft and routing system, a bonus for everyone.
