My company was just purchased by them, and I'm curious how much tuition reimbursement they offer for bachelor's degrees.

    A friend I haven't heard from in a while works for them. I'll reach out to him and ask when I'm back in town this weekend. No promises though, it's been a while. I know it's not much, but I'm really not sure if we have any Siemens employees here..we shall see!

    Most companies are usually around the $5500 range per year.


    I just googled what you were looking for and this is what I found .."Siemens $5500 per year for Bachelor or Masters. Only one degree allowed."

    source: List of jobs that offer TUITION REIMBURSEMENT , even to part time college age students

    Thanks for the replies guys. I checked the same link Yuck, but saw that it was circa 2007. I heard that their benefits have changed since then. If it's still the same, I'm really gonna miss the $7k for undergrad and 15k for graduate reimbursement my company currently offers.

    For almost all the companies I have worked for, it was $5500 per year for a bachelors and if you were going to get a masters related to your current job title, then you could use the $5500 towards that. There was never a restriction of 7k for your bachelors and 15k for your masters.

    Ex: 4 years x $5500 = 22k for your bachelors if you used it for all 4 years
    +
    2 years x $5500 = an additional 11k for a two year masters degree

    33k > 22K (your current employer)

    My current employer actually does 7,000 per year for a bachelors, and 15,000 per year for a masters. I should have worded it better.

    Oh nice! That would be hard to beat for sure. Wow, lucky you, especially for the masters.

    Mrs. Z works with Siemens consultants on a daily basis. She said she could find out for you. According to her they offer really good benefits in general but didn't know anything specific about tuition reimbursement.
