New York Chipotle will pay for its employees to get business or technology degrees at certain colleges, the company said Tuesday. The new program, which kicks off on November 15, is the restaurant chain's latest effort to attract and retain talent in a highly competitive labor market.

Employees who have been at the company for at least 120 days and work a minimum of 15 hours per week can choose from 75 different degree programs at five schools: the University of Arizona, Bellevue University, Brandman University, Wilmington University and Southern New Hampshire University. Chipotle will cover tuition only if employees remain at the company, and ask that they stay for at least six months after they earn their degrees.

Because paying a living wage so that they [capitalists] can retain employees is simply out of the question. Same reason Amazon will fly you cross country for cancer treatment. Cheaper than paying you what you are actually worth.

Thanks Trump!

Burrito makers are the best computer engineers; makes sense.

That’s awesome.

How did the market gets so competitive? many low skills jobs are pay way above the minimum wage and adding extra incentives. Oh in case you missed it it’s the policies trump put into place and the booming economy bad orange man

A food safety course might be in order. And maybe a biology class so they can develop a burrito that doesn't give customers gas.

how does this company make money? they have poisoned most of their customers

I worked for chipotle I was a service manager I made 1 dollar more then a part time employee also when you become a manager you don’t get tips even though you still work grill and line along with cashier and dishes so yeah and from my experience they only like to hire students

New program

A raise might be nice too

How about just pay them more.

Why not discount food in institutions

Good
