Trying to understand what would be a competitive salary should be for my position. I’ve been working as an AE at a rep firm in Los Angeles for the past 8 years. During that time, I’ve billed $178 million dollars in total—$97.5 million since the pandemic—and I’ve never not hit my budget. I’m told our profit margins are between 13-15%. My current comp structure is $110k base, $30k commissions and the promise of a $30-50k bonus if our budget is hit. Is this anywhere close to being competitive?
