Honestly,
There are only a handful of individuals who have anything beyond a high school diploma. Also, I am almost certain I am the youngest member of management.
The only requirement to receive TA is that I must sign a contract stating I promise to work for the company for at least two years beyond my graduation date and that the program be accredited. If I voluntarily leave before then I will have to repay. This is one reason I didn't want to use the TA for my undergraduate degree.
I enjoy my work and it's a great company to work for. However, there is not much room to grow. On the positive side, the pay is above average. I am happy where I am now but I look forward to new opportunities.
