Plexus President **Brian Griffin** was among the insurance industry figures interviewed for the story. As Griffin noted, [student loan repayment programs](http://leadersedgemagazine.com/articles/2016/09/the-ramen-noodle-effect/) are part of the trend of companies looking toward unique benefit offerings as recruitment and retention tools. "There’s a fair amount of things out there that firms are looking at to differentiate themselves and get the best talent they possibly can," Griffin told *Leader's Edge*. With the student loan debtload [continuing to grow](http://www.plexusgroupe.com/s/uncategorized/1841/img)-- and with the retention of key employees and the recruitment of top talent key issues for all firms -- repayment programs don't figure to be going away.  In short, now is the time for companies to become aware of the options available.
