Thoughts on a company that won’t negotiate on salary and pays all the Account Executives the same salary. Appears years of experience mean little?

I can see this as a positive. As a woman of color I find security in a position that pays the same. My partner is an attorney and also finds the the standardized cravath scale as a positive - it’s transparent what peoples pay is and you can be assured you aren’t being underpaid.

Many law firms did this years ago. At least it’s transparent.

There’s no room for growth there. They’re starting everyone off at what they’re willing to pay them and you’ll maybe get a raise every 5-6 years of .5%. If you can work there and job hunt I would definitely see if there’s another option.

Either:

1) it recruits a consistent performance level (is that possible?)
2) it views those in the role as easily replaceable / doesn’t value them
3) Performance is compensated with a bonus

How is the comp relative to the industry/market?

Usually these paygrading programs do account for experience. Are you sure this one doesn't?

What's the rest of the payment structure bonus/commissions etc?

50/50. Also have to consider cost of living so someone In California paid same as someone in Iowa? Also won’t guarantee they will reduce base salary at a later date.

So I was applying for jobs and saw some $90K and others more like $115k in terms of total comp salary and bonus. Some companies have more expensive benefits or pension plan really valuable later in life.

Might be worth to think about the benefits , but aside from that some companies make you earn seniority in their company and move up the ladder , where they'd need to justify paying more versus others who've been there awhile

That’s typically. They offer transparent salaries.
Try to make your $ on commission.

One thought: don't work there.

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience.
