iirc the only benefits which transfer to your minions is MF and any auras you or your merc put out.
Another thing, if you find your skellies spreading out too much for your tastes, run back away from them and they'll drop what they're doing and take off after you when you get far enough away (not far at all, actually) - this causes monsters to chase, naturally, and all you have to do is backtrack immediately and your minions will go back to hackin n' slashin. This helps me consolidate my summons into one pack, and the mobs they're fighting also - which makes cursing/ce easier. Of course this is bad if you're running into unmapped territory... no fun finding a boss pack on your flank to add to the mobs you're already trying to fight!
good luck
