May not be the perfect thread, but I think it has the right audience.
Anyone participate in ESPP? Mine offers 15% discount of market price with up to 10% salary investment (up to $20k/year). Latest dividend offering looks to be one share per 18.3 or something shares owned. As I understand it, the program automatically purchases quarterly and the 15% discount price is based of the average share price for that quarterly period.
Curious on other people's experiences. I've tossed 3% of my bi-weekly checks into the hat, but I have no experience with it. Figured I've recently gotten a 3% annual raise, so it will go unnoticed and hopefully prove to be worth more than the 3% provided. Company is doing well, so...why not?
...right?
