Take the initial portion of Profit Sharing value, the amount paid out at the 10% level, and convert it to a pay raise. That value then compounds every year we get a pay raise, increasing in value. Retain the amount above the 10% payout to participate in your description above. Do the math. This is a more valuable approach.
Pay raises would then be smaller as a result of the higher starting point. Do that math... not over 3 years but over 10-20 like many of us care about. We're gonna miss that PS soon after we trade it away.
