I was laid off and took a new job without seeing a firm comp plan for variable commission but had it described to me, etc.
Good news: I've closed $700K in a few short months.
Bad news: 4.5+ months in and still no variable comp plan with a recently fired Head of Sales.
I have a paper trail since starting of when I *should* get my plan, but that's out the window. Verbal promises from 2 executives I'll get paid my "full quarterly variable." New boss "working on it" but can't promise a date or that.
And now I believe they've misclassified me as exempt so either my OTE on paper needs to go up, or they re-classify me and owe overtime.
What would you honestly do if you were in my shoes? (Beyond find a better company, yes I know).
