Disney to give $1,000 bonuses to 125,000 employees and create a higher education program - Daniel Miller, LA Times

The new education initiative, which is designed to cover tuition costs for hourly employees, will receive $25 million in annual funding going forward, Disney said in a statement.... Disney, which has about 200,000 employees, is making the higher education program available to nearly 88,000 hourly workers. The company said participants can use the program to pursue higher education or vocational training — and the enrichment can be in fields unrelated to employees' responsibilities at Disney. http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-disney-bonuses-education-20180123-story.html
