What are your thoughts on asking for a piece of sales commission with a base pay for a QC Manager? I routinely get involved in customer calls, site visits, conferences and trade shows. I have helped several sales dollow through and am now thinking I should get some compensation for those efforts. Any thoughts and numbers are welcome.

Totally valid ask. QC Managers add real revenue impact. I would negotiate a small percentage, like 1–2% of closed deals that you directly influence. Framing it as incentive-based and tied to clear metrics will help get leadership on board.

How is this not a conflict of interest?

From an audit perspective, tying a QC Manager's compensation to sales commission could create incentives that might compromise their objectivity and the integrity of the quality control processes.

If a QC Manager's income is directly linked to sales, there could be pressure, either explicit or implicit, to overlook or downplay quality issues to ensure a sale goes through and they receive their commission. This directly undermines the core function of quality control.

If it becomes known that the QC Manager is compensated based on sales, it could erode trust in the quality control process both internally (among other departments) and externally (with customers).

Mayby ask for some other type of bonus - perfomance baed, or project based bonus based on company revenue ebidtda

I think it’s a very valid ask. I know people who have this commission structure

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K.

I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?
