I am interested in finding out what the top 20% of comp plans are for this as well. I am 10 months into my transportation broker career. Currently on pace for $65kish. Seem pretty low when compaired to the work load, sales ability it takes and 3rd party systems knowledge needed to currently be at about 8 full truck loads and 2 ltl orders per day.

In complete transparency, I am currently at a $110k base with a commission payout of $40k-$60K annually, with $60k being my cap plus my car allowance of 8k per year.

I was offered a job at another forwarded as a BDM with a base of $160k plus an $8k car allowance with a commission payout of 15 percent gross after I beat my salary.

So I am wondering if other BDM can help with this question, and I guess my second question is it a good time to transfer jobs?

$160K Base for an individual contributor is Legit!! Unless this forwarder is a no-name/new player, I would jump on that right away!! We will never get there at Purple or Brown…

I’m hearing $250K OTE (NJ/PA), $120k-$140k base (including car) one of the forwarders mentioned a sign on bonus first year could be worth up to $20K

Just get crystal on the % of gross vs. % of GRATE and how they actually comp…with all the Fuel/Demand Surcharge games we’ve been through, none of deserve to get duped into the same deal elsewhere!! Good luck and Godspeed! Let us know how it shakes out!

$160K is a very legit base from a forwarder. It is a lower paying industry. I would think FedEx may offer more stability, but it depends on what forwarder we talking. If it’s the big guys, they been around for 100 years and you’ll be fine. I’ve recently turned down a key account management role paying $145K, $25K sign on, $8K car allowance, and potential for $50-$60K commission. I’m 10 years in healthcare packaging/logistics (4 of which were with this forwarder previously).

Let’s call out the scam now: return to the office policies are asking for more of your time for the exact same pay. Record billables over the year and a half have shown that associates are indefinitely more efficient working at home. If you want me to come to the office, lower your billable expectation or pay me more. Simple economics. We have leverage, let’s exert it here.

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
