while there is no chance of the kind of advancement that Evans had, plant staff (janitors, landscapers, etc.) at univerisities occupy an interesting space.

In particular, they're full time employees, get good vacation and benefits plans, and (at my R1 school), their first two children, if accepted, get 4 years of undergrad tuition each.

This is an astonishingly strong incentive, and it shows. Retention rates are basically 100%.

Does anyone know if the large tech companies that give free lunch, microkitchen food, etc. to their employees also give these benefits to their service workers (janitors, etc.)?
