      Often times the ‘match’ isn’t matched fully until you’ve been an employee for x years. Ask your HR department about their vesting schedule! 🤓

        Well… yeah. That’s how they use benefits to encourage loyalty.

        When I hit 5 years, I vest and my employer begins double-matching, including retroactive contributions. I put in 7%, so in another 2 trays they’ll put 70% of my annual salary into my retirement all at once.

        It heavily encourages loyalty because it’s genuinely a great benefit. I have no problem with that.

        I work for money, and the reward for loyalty is more money.

        Beats the hell out of a pizza party.
