For some people there is no percieved differnce, some would think employer is trying to save on taxes, while for some (many?) there is a real percieved difference as being seen a member of family rather than a disposable hired hand. For an analogy, one can be given money instead of being invited to a social gathering. One might feel offended, while other may feel happier.
