Yea. Don't do that. If you're actually low in your salary bracket, you'll get adjusted. They monitor it. Don't turn down a promotion and send the wrong signals - especially as a staff

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

What % haircut should be expected? As an example, if I make 100k (base + commission) today, would it be realistic to ask for 90k (10% cut) + equity to make up the difference?
