That was a $5,400 average per participant. In 2017, #SaveABillion challenged employees to make changes to their savings by increasing their participation in the company 401k program. Movement matches 100% of employee contributions, up to 6% of an employee's pay, vested immediately. Employees were asked to take the Financial Finesse personal financial assessment and then the Principal Retirement readiness test. Participants were provided with company-paid one-on-one consultations with a personal financial advisor. Participation in company 401k increased by 28%.

The Thrive staff builds out the programs and events that, when added together, make Movement a great and loving place to work.

That email is forwarded to the employee and their supervisor and they are provided with a bobble-head Raving Fan Pen.
