You can adjust your contribution rate, investment elections, or opt out at any time by calling (800) 835-5097 or visiting Fidelity NetBenefits. Elections cannot be entered in Workday.

Your Contributions
You may contribute up to 50% of your eligible compensation, up to the annual IRS limits. Eligible compensation includes your base salary plus sales commissions or annual bonus. In 2023, the IRS limits allow you to contribute up to:
- $22,500 if you are under age 50
- $30,000 if you are age 50 or older (which includes an additional $7,500 in catch-up contributions, made as a separate dollar amount election)
These limits include your pre-tax, or Roth contributions, or a combination of both.
Our plan also allows for after-tax contributions up to the $66,000 annual IRS limit including all other sources of contributions (pre-tax, Roth, or matching). Visit the Fidelity site for more information on the after-tax contribution option.
If you previously made contributions to another 401(k) this year, complete the 401(k) Prior Contributions Form and submit to Payroll to ensure you don’t exceed the IRS maximum. You can roll over your previous employer’s 401(k) plan by completing the Rollover into Fidelity Form.
Company Contributions
To support your retirement saving efforts, Informatica matches 50 cents for every dollar you contribute, up to $6,000. There are multiple investment options including target date funds. Informatica’s matching contributions are made pre-tax no matter if you make pre-tax or Roth employee contributions.
Vesting
Vesting is another way of saying “how much of the contributions are yours to keep when you leave the company.” You are always 100% vested in your own contributions, including any investment gains and losses.
The 401(k) plan will now have a graded vesting schedule for employees hired after 1/1/2017. You become vested in company contributions over time, based on the following schedule:
Employees hired prior to 1/1/2017 will continue to be 100% vested from day one.
Employees 55 or older are exempted from the tiered vesting schedule and will be 100% vested from their hire date.
Loans and Withdrawals
The money in your account is intended as a long-term investment to help you prepare for your financial needs in retirement. However, under certain circumstances, you may be able to access money from your account before reaching retirement age.
Provided you meet certain guidelines, you may borrow money from your 401(k) account if the need arises. You may borrow:

- A maximum of either
- 50% of your vested account balance, or
