I’m 2 years into medical device sales for spine surgery. I’m making 60 grand a year but I feel like I work much harder then I get paid. Is this normal when first starting in this field?

Seems low. What is your base vs commission? And are you performing on target? If you are making less than you think you should be, have you started applying for new jobs? I would have after the first year lol 😆

I started off around 60 with no commission as a clinical specialist in spine. I got bumped to 75 after 2 years and my 3rd year I got promoted to regional manager and bumped to 90 plus commission. 2nd year as RM I made 140 total.

I’ve been with my current company for a little over 5 years now and since the start of the pandemic have been WFH. I absolutely love WFH and have always wanted a position in which I could WFH.

My current company also said I am maxed out in term of what they are willing to pay salary wise.
