    How many employers help you foot your kids’ tuition bill? Here, staffers’ children can get four-year scholarships (as much as $2,000 per child), plus the possibility of summer internships at the homebuilder. The benefits are also sweet: Employees get a generous 401(k) match of up to 8% of salary—with a profit-sharing kicker. Read Great Place to Work review here.
