- astockwell 7y agoThis is completely untrue. I'm an American citizen and not a single one of the 6+ W2 jobs I've held have quoted the base salary with insurance premiums deducted.
- rayiner 7y agoThe quoted base salary does not include the employer paid portion of health insurance. For the 57% of people who receive health insurance coverage through their employer, that amounts on average to 82% of total premiums.
- petronio 7y agoMinor addendum: Unless you decide on a plan whose cost is greater than the base plan provided by the employer, in which case the difference is deducted from your salary.
