The Basics of Your 401(k) Retirement Plan
When you join Specialized, you can choose to contribute the default 6% of your pre-tax earnings to the 401(k), select a different percentage, or opt out of the program.
You’ll have the flexibility to make contributions on a pre-tax, ROTH (after-tax), or post-tax basis.
All 401(k) plan administrative fees for active teammates are paid for by Specialized.
