Thank you for your post, take home pay is a challenge and we know it is top of mind for our teams. How to balance base pay, incentive comp and benefits is never easy. We will continue to work on it.

Outstanding 401K!!!

Pros

Company will match up to 4% contribution, plus add an extra 7% on top of that! That turns my 4% into 15% every year!

Cons

Salary lower that competition, but they make up for it in long term incentives. Plus, you get the opportunity to make up the difference with bonus 2x year.
