Discretionary contribution to 401k

I read that Wells may give a discretionary contribution to your 401k up to 4% if you make less thank $150k.

Has anyone received this discretionary contribution? If so, what % did you receive and when did it pay out?

I have not gotten profit sharing since 2018 or 2019. It went into 402k at year end.

Executive Assistant: Charlie, you need to make a decision about the discretionary profit sharing contribution for this year.

Charlie: 0%. And can you schedule a meeting with the board and the operating committee to discuss our pay raises for next year.

Yeah it was tied to profit sharing, not formally, but aligned. Haven't seen it in years

The firm has always had the ability to provide this UP TO 4%. I've never seen 4%. Uses to be 1-2%. Some years zero. Nothing guaranteed due to the up to language

It's been 0% since 2019. We got 2% in 2010-2013 and 1% all other years. This plan was essentially a replacement for the Cash Balance Plan (which got frozen right before this new profit sharing plan came along), then they cut it to 0%. I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for Charles to approve anything higher than zero.
