I’ve always been curious about jobs that offer commission on top of a regular salary. I hear people talk about earning extra through commission, and it sounds interesting, but I have no idea where to start. I know some of these roles involve a lot of customer interaction, but I’d prefer something with less direct dealing with customers if possible.

Does anyone here work in a commission-based job? I’d love to hear about your experience!

I don't, but a couple of people here in sales roles get commission. Basically if they manage to upsell a customer from a normal retail client to the point they're buying monthly, they get a cut of the proceeds. I'm trying to work my way into one of those roles because they make a loooooot more than I do.

It always sounds exciting when we hear more money, right? I wish you good luck for your efforts and I hope you get there soon.

Move to sales! I work with base + commission and love it. It feels more rewarding!

Oh is it? I know sales is one the option to earn commision and I guess investments too. I have seen people working in investments earning base+commission.

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told. It’s a lot different than what was relayed in the posting and during the interviews. Additionally, they hired my counter part in as a senior manager which is at least $30k more than what I make. My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
