Each of the benefit letters were specific to the individual. Medical, pension and 401k.

Convert your 401k to a ROTH, much better investment opportunities.

" It’s been a loser since SBC management took over ..."

Signed, Captain Obvious.

Seriously, it's like the only stock that has somehow NOT gone up in the longest bull market in history.

(I know, "the dividend, the dividend"...I've got a feeling that's headed for the c-apper too)

A lot of companies like ExxonMobil have gotten rid of 401k matching entirely. I wouldn't put anything past T at this point https://techstaffer.blog/2020/11/25/will-att-stop-matching-401k-contributions/

I retired after 40 years and my advice would be to take the match at the max, then dump the company stock every quarter at a minimum. It’s been a loser since SBC management took over and micromanaged everything under very heavy senior management.

You are the one they kept to long. He is right about the 401k change although it only applies to those that were hired prior to a certain date. Everyone hired after already have different matching terms.

It forces you to contribute more into AT&T stock until you change it

50% on 10% contribution would actually be an increase in company match.

The old legacy 401k plan was 80% match on 6% contribution now it is going to be 50% match on 10% contribution. Email came out to those affected when vacation days were removed, and pensions reduced. Great way to plan for retirement when benefits keep being reduced (25yrs in november)

Pay attention. Did no one work at all during the last 2 months? They're changing the match calculation. Check your email. Wake up.

Which change?

I think he means that they took away from everything else so why not that too?
