So without miles and status, this starts around what, $10,000?
How did that get through the accounting department? Any org I've worked for spells out exactly how much they'll cover/reimburse for travel expenses, and it's not nearly that high.
Had something similar at a public company I used to work for. When any C-level exec "retired", an announcement would go out explaining they would "continue to graciously serve as a consultant for the company" - which always ended up being: We keep paying them exorbitant amounts to not work.
Meanwhile, I can't get a $1k / year raise for a person on my team because "business is tight".
Pretty much yeah
