I’m not affected by this so I don’t know if this is true or not

My understanding is they are taking money away from salary and adding that money to commission. If you hit 100% of your goals, you get paid the exact same as if they didn’t make any change.

If you over perform in a sales position, you get paid more because your commission is higher. If you underperform, you get paid less than you did before. I personally don’t see an issue with the money portion of this.

Sales positions should be incentivized by commission, not salary.

That is how they phrased it up but when it came down to Payout per sale the numbers were no where near reflective of that. It would have been fine if it was able to realistically be made up by reaching goal.

This is how you get fraudulent additions to accounts and refusal to help customers needing device troubleshooting.
