Following on from a previous thread of mine (
http://www.ukhillwalking.com/forums/t.php?t=636875), the company I work for has now been forced to auto-enrol us into a pension scheme.
The basic scheme is that contributions will be made on qualifying earnings (salary minus £5,824). The contributions will be 2% from me, and the company will match with another 2%.
Is 2% normal? In previous jobs this was closer to 5-8% contribution from the company, and 4-8% from me. Have times changed and 2% is now normal, or is this a shitty deal?
