There are things the company wants/needs but filling new hire classes probably won't be a tick mark in our favor during the next round of negotiations. Just a guess.
Retro is not guaranteed. If we go 3 years there's no way retro is part of the signing bonus. Even with retro pay it's like the people who get big tax returns. They've given the gov't an interest free loan for a year which is in the gov't favor.

If anyone is ****ing you over, I'd say there's a short list of people that doesn't include the new demographic.
