What Oracle puts in, and what the plan costs
What Oracle put into the plan, per active participant
$3,425
Oracle Corporation put $3,425 into this plan for each of its 58,808 active participants in plan year 2024. This is the whole employer side of the plan: matching money, profit sharing, non-elective and safe-harbor contributions, and reallocated forfeitures. The Form 5500 does not separate them, so this is what the employer put in and not the match.
Oracle put in less per active participant than 64% of plans with 5,000+ participants in software and IT services. The middle plan in that group of 62 reported $4,620. Software and IT services comes from business code 541512, which Oracle entered on its own Form 5500. Sponsors pick that code themselves, so a code that does not describe what the employer does ranks the plan against the wrong companies.
What this figure cannot separate: how much Oracle pays, and how much it puts in
This is dollars, not a rate. A Form 5500 carries no payroll, so the figure reflects both how much the employer puts in and how much the employer pays: two plans running the same formula report different amounts when one pays better. Crossing the peer group with industry holds most of that difference still, and none of it disappears.
This is one plan year, not an average. A true-up, a plan merger or a one-off contribution moves a single year on its own.

The $3,425 above is the Form 5500 figure for plan year 2024, and it counts every employer dollar on one line. Oracle Corporation also files a Form 11-K, which states the match formula for plan year 2025: the card below reads $1,485 a year at a $49,500 salary. That second figure is what the formula pays one worker on that salary, and not an amount either filing reports. The two figures cover different plan years and measure different things, so neither one is the other one corrected.
What Oracle puts in
$1,485
a year, at a $49,500 salary.
The match paragraph, word for word
“Oracle matches 50% of an active participant’s salary deferrals up to a maximum deferral of 6% of compensation for the pay period, with maximum aggregate matching of $5,100 in any calendar year. Oracle has the right, under the Plan, to discontinue or modify its matching contributions at any time. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified plans. All of Oracle’s matching contributions are made in cash on a pre-tax basis.”
What you contribute to collect all of it
Contribute at least 6% of your pay to collect the full match.
That is $2,970 a year at a $49,500 salary, and it scales with your own.
Vesting score
64.29 out of 100
How fast the employer’s money becomes yours. Higher than 29% of the 369 schedules we have scored.
It measures vesting speed and nothing else. It says nothing about the size of the match, what the plan charges, or the funds inside it.
Share of the employer's money that is the worker's at hire and at each of the first 6 anniversaries: 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 100%, 100%. The score is the average of those 7 readings.
Vesting, word for word
“All elective contributions made by participants and earnings on those contributions are 100% vested at all times. Participants’ vesting in Oracle’s matching contributions is based on years of service. Participants are 25% vested after one year of service and vest an additional 25% on each successive service anniversary date, becoming 100% vested after four years of service.”
The wait before the match starts and the year-end true-up appear above when the filing states them. Neither is part of the score, and a filing that is silent on one of them is not a plan without it.
What the plan costs, against plans of its size
84th percentile
$103.59 per participant in plan-paid administrative cost, more expensive than 84% of plans with 5,000+ participants.
What is Oracle's 401(k) match formula?
Oracle's 401(k) employer match tops out at 3% of pay. The match is deposited each payroll. One rate up to one limit is the commonest of the four shapes a match formula takes.
| Match formula | 50% of the first 6% of pay |
|---|---|
| Maximum employer match | 3% of compensation |
| Deposited | Each payroll |
| Paid in company stock | No, paid in cash or per your investment elections |
| Conditions | Maximum aggregate matching of $5,100 in any calendar year; Oracle has the right, under the Plan, to discontinue or modify its matching contributions at any time |
At a $90,000 salary, contributing 6% ($5,400) earns the full employer match of $2,700 for the year.
What the filing says, word for word

What is Oracle's 401(k) vesting schedule?
Oracle vests the employer match on a graded schedule: 25% after one year, rising to 100% after four. Each step is money that leaves with you that year, which is how a graded schedule differs from a cliff.
| Employer match vesting | Graded: 25% at 1 yr, 50% at 2 yr, 75% at 3 yr, 100% at 4 yr |
|---|---|
| Your own contributions | Immediate: always 100% yours |

Who can join Oracle's 401(k), and is enrollment automatic?
Oracle's filing does not mention automatic enrollment, which is not the same as the plan having none.
| Plan entry | All employees on the domestic payroll of Oracle and its adopting subsidiaries are eligible as of the first date, or any succeeding entry date, following the date the employee is credited with one hour of service |
|---|---|
| Excluded groups | Employees whose compensation and conditions of employment are subject to collective bargaining; non-resident aliens with no U.S. earned income from Oracle; workers performing services at an Oracle facility as employees of a third-party entity that is not an employment agency; employees of employment agencies; persons not classified as employees for tax purposes |
| Automatic enrollment | Not mentioned in the filing (not proof of absence) |

Who holds your account
Schedule C of the Form 5500 filed for plan year 2024 reports Fidelity Investments, filed as “FIDELITY INVESTMENTS INSTITUTIONAL”. That is the company paid to keep the account records: what is in an account, what went into it, and usually the site a participant signs in to. The trustee that holds the plan’s assets can be a different company, and this filing does not name it.
10,593 plans on file name Fidelity Investments as their recordkeeper. Of those, the 10,022 with a computable fee have a median plan-paid cost of $97.71 per participant.

The match formula, the vesting schedule and the enrollment rules on this page were read from one document: the Form 11-K annual report that Oracle Corporation filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission for the plan year ended December 31, 2025. Each of those fields carries the filing sentence it was read from, expandable where the field appears. Nothing on this page was supplied by the employer to this site.
The plan assets, the participant counts, the plan-paid fees and the recordkeeper come from a different document, the plan’s DOL Form 5500 annual return, and the section that reports them links it. Comparisons with other employers are computed across the filings named in the section they appear in.
