What do y'all think? How are voluntary leave programs working out elsewhere (ie Eagle)?

Some of the highlights:
Leave lengths of 1 to 12 months
Longer call back provisions (30 days, 90 days or none depending on leave length)
Company paid portion of medical and dental insurance
Domicile protection
Full travel benefits (as allowed by our travel agreements)
Seniority and longevity continue to accrue
