What happens if I resign during the first week of Dec (just to be eligible for 401k match), then the year end performance review happens and my manager had already decided to give me 5 rating?
Matching 401k contributions take 3 years to vest, so if you're leaving within 3 years it doesn't matter if you're still with the bank when they post the match
@a4 has the correct answer. I would not assume you are receiving anything. Plan for the worst, hope for the best.
I believe the policy also states that they can choose to not enforce the 30 days. So if it benefits them they may cut you early.
To be eligible for the 401(k) matching contribution, you must be employed with the company on January 1, 2026.If you submit your resignation in the first week of December and set your last working day as January 2, 2026, you would still be employed on January 1, 2026, and therefore may qualify for the 401(k) matching contribution.
Whatever the decision may be, rest assured the outcome will favor the least cost option for the bank.
