Hey squad -
First post on Bravado (I know I know, finally!), long time Corp Bro follower.
My company is offering us the chance to adjust our comp because they need to be competitive in the market with new hires.
Currently we are on a 60/40 split (base/commish), and they are offering us the choice to change to a 50/50 split + a ~3% OTE raise. I'd be giving up 14-15% on my base, but a 28% increase on the commish variable. My question to management that I am waiting to hear back on, is if my quota would go up a lot.
I consistently hit or exceed my number, sometimes by a lot. They're also saying the next promotion I receive (I just received one in February), this will be the norm. I always bet on myself, but I also don't want to hit a cold streak all of the sudden and screw myself. I do sell into a very hot vertical right now, that is what is enticing me to seriously consider taking the new offer.
I'm curious what others would do in this situation? I need to give an answer by EOW for it to go into effect for 5/1, otherwise I can punt to next month.
