Considering an offer from Wells Fargo. The incentive/variable component is hard to comprehend, coming from consulting. Do any of you have experience/understanding as to what % of the variable component to expect in a standard year for the bank/yourself?

Recruiter advised most employees at more senior levels are regularly getting 100% of variable component but was hoping to sense check this. Thanks!

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.
