Privilege, Really! For many. Not sure why this is such an odd concept, especially to folks who read and post here.
I think the point that many posters are trying to make is that even with the supposed benefits (e.g., increased pay and the privilege of travel) you are offering, you will still lose (or never acquire) top talent. Maybe you pay a bit more in salary, but many will consider the travel and reimbursement policies, make a judgment on how you treat your employees, and decide that it isn't worth the hassle of dealing with. "Do I really want to work for someone who is going to nickel and dime me?"
