Their policy states that you qualify for a 401(k) after a year of employment, however I didn’t get one until last year when I complained I didn’t have one. I know other employees who are under qualified and have gotten promotions or they don’t have a bachelors degree like I do. Am I being discriminated against? I am based in California.
