Question - reviewing an offer for high growth Saas startup - raised series A
Contract states that max commission payout mid-year is 100% OTE per quarter, and at year end, remainder of commissions + accelerators are paid out.
For example, if I hit 120% of target, I only get paid commissions for 100% of target , remaining commission for that 20% is held out til end of year.
In past I have always received full commission plus quarterly accelerators at quarter end. Seems they want to hold overachievement commissions until end of year and accelerators on annual target only instead of quarterly.
I am perhaps okay with accelerators being paid out on annual target at year end, but not okay with commissions above 100% being held til year end as well.
Questions:
- Has anyone seen this where commissions (not including accelerators are held to year end?
- For Sass, is it common for accelerators to be put on annual target and paid year end, or are mostcompanies paying accelerators quarterly?
Thanks!!!
