The conditions for funding depend on the program. There is an affinity partnership that enables fully or partially funded degrees from a curated set of schools.  There is also traditional reimbursement.

Tuition for fully funded degrees is pre-paid by the company directly to the university, requires that the employee meet the eligibility requirement and maintains a 2.0 GPA or higher
For partially funded degrees, the company pays 100% of the eligible tuition costs (that remain after grants have been exhausted) directly to employee's school and reimburses cost of required books and supplies up to $10k for a Masters degree. The employee is responsible for any remaining tuition costs. Additional requirements may apply.
Upon completion, tuition is reimbursed by the company covers 90% of the eligible tuition costs (that remain after grants have been exhausted) up to $10k for a graduate degree
