What affects weekly take-home pay?

Weekly pay can vary more than the headline annual number suggests. If part of the compensation comes through bonuses, stock vesting, or irregular payouts, withholding can be much more uneven than a clean annualized model. State tax can also reduce weekly take-home materially. At this income level, even changes to retirement deferrals and benefit costs can shift the net figure by noticeable amounts across the year.
