It’s disingenuous and dishonest IMHO, and if this had happened to me on a personal ticket (vs a corporate travel agent issued work trip) I’d be making stronger waves.

I think there are (sketchy) workarounds but still…
If you take the credit (after a price drop) and need to change again, simply cancel the ticket. You will get an additional credit. Then book the new flights you want and apply both credits.
