Interesting move and I think it'll bite them in the rear eventually. Reducing benefits isn't a great idea in this job market. We just introduced a 20k/24mo retention bonus to PICs. Year 2 CA makes over to 90k if you include per diems. $600 day rates too if you work a hard day off, so pretty easy to hit 6 figures.
