For sales roles, Are commissions capped at AWS? Note, I am not asking about any other portion of comp, only specifically the variable commissions paid based on performance.

Lots of folks saying top performers make $500k+ but also saw a comment from someone a couple years ago who said that commissions are capped. This person was a non amazon employee so it's unclear how accurate that was.

Last I heard they were capped at around $750k but I could be way off

As far as I know, there is a cap but it's fairly high. I don't think too many people have an issue with it. If you're a super high performer, it might be worth skipping them.

I interviewed at KPMG on 11/14 and got a verbal offer the next day but since then waiting to hear from them. Been following up continuously but the partners are not replying it seems. In the meanwhile i have an offer from BT offering 90k for 4 yrs of experience which seems to be fair. I am just unsure whether to accept the offer as I was waiting for kpmg reply as I want B4 on my resume which apparently is a big deal. Is BT also good on resume for future employers ??
