One thing that affects new hires: while you have to earn the company HSA contribution by jumping through a couple of hoops (taking a quiz, getting your yearly physical) during the plan year, the money you earn isn’t paid out till the following January. So any new hire during their first calendar year of employment will not get any HSA money contributed, but if you keep it up you’ll get money every year thereafter.
Recent new hire and I had the HSA money in my account within a few weeks. What you are thinking of is the bonus money you get by doing the quiz and getting a physical.
