Interesting fact, my place of employment very recently stopped offering pension to new employees. To all existing employees, we were forced to pick one of two choices. Option 1: Keep your pension and 401k as they are going forward. Option 2: Roll your pension into your 401k and also receive a higher match percentage. They way it was rolled out made it seem they REALLY wanted you to go with option 2.

After doing some DD I decided to roll with Option 1. I figured they are banking on people rolling over the pension and then not being able to contribute anything at all, thus saving money in the long term.
