Listen 6% sounds amazing honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever had an employer who contributed up to 6%. I once had an employer who did 5% but my current employer maxes out at 3% contribution so I would be thrilled for that 6% you have.

6% is great esp if there is no vesting period.

6 is good IMO. Most employers I’ve seen have been 3-4%

My employer does 7% dollar for dollar match and then 10% profit sharing. So, 17% annually.

I hear you. When I was early in my career having the cash/bonus was better now that I am in the higher income years I prefer the Profit sharing.

UKG contributes a 45% employer match for every dollar you contribute to your pre-tax or Roth 401(k), the federal max (up to $23,000).

Interesting. I think I’d still prefer my dollar for dollar at 6%. You’d have to be contributing 13-14% yourself for them to be contributing 6%

Do you all feel that the Health Insurance choice is actually all the same? The coverage is absolutely copy and paste for Bronze to Platinum and the deductible/copay is very similar.
I just don’t understand why we have the illusion of “choice” if the offer is the same and it is really bad (in our case).
Going from $61 per paycheck for 2.5k deductible 75% copay to $500+ per paycheck with 500 deductible 85% copay.
