Company benefits change all the time. Health benefits ebb and flow with cost increases and decreases.
Also tuition reimbursement is an often abused program, wherein the learner just jumps ship after the classes are over and the tuition has been reimbursed. This goes for college courses to technical classes.
I can't tell you out of the 15 people I managed took advantage of the reimbursement program and stuck with the company even 1 year after completing the courses. Most thought that the new knowledge meant they deserved a raise immediately. Since that didn't happen, they left with bitter words about how the company didn't value them and wouldn't reward them for their new knowledge. But in truth, they got the benefit of learning, they still needed to prove they could apply what they learned over time. It isn't like college grads get immediate raises, but that is what the expectation has become.
