Chieh Huang, the CEO of Boxed, an online platform similar to Costco, has decided to pay for the college education of his employees’ children. While Boxed uses technology in its services, Huang emphasizes that the company thrives thanks to its hardworking warehouse staff who handle the picking, preparing, and shipping of orders.
Huang values his employees greatly, recognizing them as the foundation of the company. To show his gratitude, he has taken this step to support their children’s education. His announcement a few months ago brought many employees to tears, including Huang himself.
