An employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) is a benefit that allows people to buy stock in the company they work for at a discounted price. Large companies or public corporations sometimes offer these plans, and they use the sum of their total employee contributions to make a large investment in the company.
The max contribution is $25k, but sometimes employers will put a cap on salary that can go toward your ESPP. If you havent ever contributed to your companys ESPP before, select a percentage of your pay that feels comfortable (maybe 1-5% of your salary).
The investment in the ESPP and then the taxable account has some docHub drag because youll have to tax not just the capital gains after 2 years but also your dividend income along the way, and capital gains again when you withdraw. In contrast, the 401(k) defers all the taxation until withdrawal.
Cons of ESPP for employees There could be different tax implications depending on where you and your employer are located. The discount allowed by the company may be taxed as benefit-in-kind. Returns are not guaranteed and the share price may fall as well as increase. There could also be a currency risk involved.
Stock options are a popular way for companies to build a strong relationship with employees and to motivate them to work hard in the interests of the company. Stock options are also a way to encourage employees to stay and not be tempted to leave and work for a competitor.

There is a good chance that the 401(k) plan beats the ESPP if you expect your marginal taxes to go down, as is often the case because you move into a lower bracket and potentially even move from the high-income tax state where you worked to a zero or at least low-tax state in retirement.
#11 How much should I put in an employee stock purchase plan? You can contribute 1% to 15% of your salary, up to the $25,000 IRS limit per calendar year. The more disposable income you have, the more you can afford to put in an employee stock purchase plan.
You can usually purchase ESPP plan stock worth 1% to 15% of your salary, up to the $25,000 IRS limit per calendar year. If you participate, your employer will deduct your contribution directly from your paycheck.
Any accumulated contributions in excess of this amount may be refunded back to you. The value of your stock for this $25,000 limit is based on the stocks undiscounted price when the offering begins, not at the purchase date.
If you have no debt and youre contributing up to the company match in your 401(k) PLUS saving money, you should definitely max out the amount you can contribute to your ESPP. This will result in you substantially growing your net worth.
