I have 2.5 yrs of experience as an account manager in a top IT staffing firm and am curious about what the avg total comp is for my level. I am at a base of $65k and made approx 8k in commission last year . Seems low compared to what management says can be made at staffing firms.. Thoughts?

Your base sounds competitive for 2.5 years of experience but commission seems low. How much did you bill? As a full cycle recruiter I would expect 10% at a minimum.

I’d agree. You should be well over $100 thousand for you annually

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.
