Texas Instruments also offers retiree healthcare benefits to eligible employees, which can provide meaningful coverage for those who retire before reaching Medicare eligibility at age 65. Texas Instruments's 401(k) plan includes employer matching contributions of Up to 4% matching contribution + 2% fixed employer contribution (enhanced DC plan, employees hired after Dec 31 2003), subject to plan terms. A comprehensive retirement plan that accounts for each element of your Texas Instruments benefits package is the best way to understand what lies ahead.
