From the Paper:

"On the Human Resources front, the company is faced with the rising cost of employee benefits. The company is not just content with enhancement of visibility of employee's available benefits; however it also endeavoring to educate employees on the manner in which to maximize value of their benefits and thus manage costs for Boeing. Boeing is sometimes seen as the ideal employer for Engineering and Science college students. Among the major attractions remain that employees can progress their education while continuing to work at Boeing. One thing that draws a lot of new employees is the college education reimbursement system known as the Learning Together Program on which the company invested nearly $105 million sending the employees to school once again wherein they are able to pick up any degree and the company bears the full cost of tuition. Because of such diversity of products and services to work on, it is small wonder that the company is seen as one of the best places to work for student having science and engineering qualification which is unmatched anywhere."
