Big 4 will match up to 12% depending on how much you put in. MBB will pay 12% irrespective of how much you put in. Not sure about tech.

I was on 8 + 12 at Deloitte. They defo changed it for people who joined after 2019

Thanks everyone! My firm offers 10% with no requirement to contribute, so this feels like a decent benefit

like

Yes this is great!

Don’t ask Deloitte, our pension plan for those who joined after early 2019 is abysmal.

Accenture contribute based on your age!

10%, and we have to contribute 3 or 4%, I don't remember.

I recently received an offer from Deloitte,the pension starts from 4.5 % and an equal match from D.This can go upto 12 % by employee and employer.The offer also mentions about an ”uplift“ ,though doesn’t tell the quantum of the same.

Not sure why you think so ,it’s there in black & white in the contract.Could you please explain?

If you had 2 mortgages at the exact same interest rate (1 is a 15 year and the other is a 30 year), does it make sense to put extra payments (say 400 per month) towards one or the other? Looking at it purely from a $ perspective in the long term (not psychological where You prepay the lower balance quicker to ultimately have only one loan).

15 year loan - 125k balance (renting this property out)
30 year loan - 400k balance (looking to buy this property soon)
