Full question:
I work for a company that has provided tuition reimbursement; part of the program states that you must be employed for one year after the payment of the class or you have to repay the full amount. I have not graduated from my program; however, the HR manager (and subsequently - for lack of doing anything about the issues - the plant manager) has created what I feel is a hostile work environment, and I feel compelled to leave the company. If I do, would I have a legal viewpoint to stand up for myself to not repay the tuition?

Answer:
The answer depends on the specific wording of your contract. A court might interpret the repayment requirement as not applying if you can prove a constructive discharge due to the hostile work environment. However, based on the information provided, we cannot assist you further online. It is advisable to consult a local attorney who can review all relevant documents and facts in your case.
