They are relying heavily on people supplementing poor pay with their pensions, and so will attract either those with little motivation to knock out a good product, or those whom are a very long way from the front-line.
The sage advice has always been to give a very wide berth indeed to any company which attempts such a strategy! Their pay and T&S must be as least as good as on offer from any other organisation. If they think that 'topping up' a military pension with low pay is acceptable, then people need to disabuse them of that idea PDQ!
