Wowwww.....Starbucks Coffee Offers A No-String Attached College Help To Employees.....Totally Amazing!!!!

The coffee giant, star bucks has announced a new program that allows workers a chance to earn an online college degree at Arizona State University for a discounted rate. The critical, and enlightened part of the announcement is that employees won't be trapped for months or years after finishing school through a repayment requirement. In other words, it won't hold them back from going on to bigger and better things. Simply put....Study whatever you want and leave whenever you want....how cool is that!!!





 According to the company's CEO, Howard Schultz, "Employees who leaves after getting a degree on Starbucks' dime will only bolster the firms brand" he told The New York Times.

He added that he thought plenty of workers would stay on...."I believe it would lower attrition, it'll increase performance, it'll attract and retain better people" he said.






The company said on it'e website that the main drive of the program is the number of employees who have begun but not completed college.

"Starbucks believes in the promise and pursuit of the American Dream. While more than 70% of our U.S. partners (employees) are students or aspiring students, we know that only half of Americans who begin college today will actually finish, largely due to financial and work/life barriers. We're in a position to help. Education is one of the very best investments our partners can make, and investing in our partners is the best investment Starbucks can make" the firm said.






The Starbucks' no-string attached college help to workers is a perfect example of the saying...If you love someone, set them free and if you respect someone, you'll want the best for them----whether you were with them for a week, a year or a lifetime.....Bravo Starbucks Coffee!!!
