A CEO Is Paying for All His Employees’ Kids to Go to College

The CEO of Boxed.com says he'll pay for ALL his employees' kids to go to college. He'll cover four years of tuition, and it doesn't matter what college they choose.

Chieh Huang is the CEO of Boxed.com and they sell stuff like toilet paper and laundry detergent in bulk, and mail it to you. Chieh recently decided to add this new perk for his employees. The money is coming out of his own pocket, and a few investors are pitching in. And there's no cap on it, so even if they need 60 grand a year to go to Harvard, he'll pay.

And this is the quote that really shows what's in his heart:

I don't actually think of it as a perk, I just wants my employees to know I'm committed to making sure their families are taken care of.

 

Right now, the company has about 100 employees. And apparently most of them are pretty young, because they only have 12 kids total. Read more of this wonderful story from the Washington Post.
