Boxed CEO: Why I pay for staff's weddings & their kid's tuition

Yesterday we covered the seven companies with the quirkiest perks. At the moment, it seems like there’s a ‘benefits race’ going on between firms. Every company wants to out-reward the other with more ping pong tables, fridges filled with beer or yoga classes.

Speaking to CNBC.com, Huang outlined his initial vision for the bulk online shopping store: “When we started this business, I wanted to sell bulk goods to people all around the country.

“Social change through toilet paper was not on the agenda.”
