Of course, compensation involves more than just take-home pay. The economy, however, seems to be taking a toll on benefits as well. For example, just 57% of engineers receive health-care ben-efits. Another benefit that was once widespread is employer-matching of 401(k) contributions. Only 54% of engineers enjoy this perk. Companies offer other retirement-oriented bennies such as stock options (10% of respondents say they have these), stock-purchasing plans (9% have them), and pen-sion plans (18% still have these). In fact, a little more than a quarter of the engineers responding said their company is not funding any part of their retirement
当然,工资不仅仅包括能带回家的部分。然而,从经济上讲各种保险也是个损失。例如,仅57%的工程师享受到了医疗保险。另一种过去普遍享有的保险是401(k)贡献的员工匹配(这个不懂北美文化,不会翻译,请高手解决),然而只有54%的工程师享受到这个保险。公司提供其他退休后特定福利例如股票权(10%受访者承认享有),股票购买计划,养老金计划(真的不懂,求高手)。事实上,四分之一多的受访工程师说,他们公司没有提供任何退休后的基金。 |
