As I think about looking for a new job outside of recruitment, how do you reconcile leaving commission behind? I make 50k base but over 6 figs in commission within my first year, and I WFH. I’m still “early” career with only recruitment and admin work history, and it appears that any job I’d qualify for is realistically 45-70k.

*I’ll stay for the money, but I’m wondering if it’s worth it in face of the lack of management, their disciplinarian mindset, and the non-stop stress from it all.

Are you with a vendor, or internal? Guessing vendor ...

I am with a company that places candidates on short-term contracts. So to answer your question, more vendor than internal.

How would being a vendor or internal recruiter change the discussion?

Or should I look for another SDR position?
