^Same as every other match. What you think companies gonna match you and let it vest immediately?

My new company matches at 6% and it vests immediately.

PwC also gives the wealth builder which is 4% without any contributions from yourself.

Ours is 25% match up to 8%, so 2% and everything vests immediately. I think it's better for managers +.

Deloitte is a 25% match. It also provides a pension plan in addition to the match.

M1 a portion of 401k vests annually

108.33% match on 6% at manager level and 125% on 6% at senior manager / director level i believe

Agreed M1, but need to contribute to maximize the total retirement benefit, and I hope 100% of our people contribute at least 6%, unless they are secretly millionaires or trust fund babies.

PwC2 wealth builder requires no contributions period. I'm merely comparing the plan to other firms. 25% of 6% is a 1.5% contribution by the firm if you contribute 6%. In addition, based on level, you'll get the wealth builder contribution. I view it as one retirement benefit. At the manager level, your "match" is greater than 100% of your 401(k) contribution which is very good.

It increases once you reach manager. Continues entire time you're employed.

like

Why are they all so low? We're 50% up to 4%. My last job was insanely good but even most clients I have are better than all of ours.

like

Matches 100%?^

At Manager, match is >100% of 6% once wealth builder factored in.

It seems like a good deal for accounting firms - I'm sure only a tiny percentage gets their even initial year contributions fully vested. Does anybody know what happens to the value that appreciated but didn't vest? Does it go back to the firm it goes back to some pool from which they later do the matches?

^Its better than a match, they just give you the wealth builder regardless of whether you actually contribute yourself

There's no wealth builder benefit for contributing over 6% though

EY is 50% at least at my level.
