What's better:

60k base with 5-10% (structured per quarter million)

95k base with 3/4% fixed prelit/lit

I think I know which way I'm leaning but I'm not 100% sold.

How does the structure work in the first one? I guess it depends on how successful you'll be. If you think you'll bring in a ton of fees, then #1. If you haven't done this kind of law before and want to hedge your bets, or you have but want to work fewer hours, then go with #2.

What state is this?

So I've been at my job for 5+ years as a data analyst/back office support team. I made my way up into making a little over $40k. I've been WFH the past 2 yrs and overtime more than half my team has now been pulled out to work for a diff department which resulted in me taking 90% of our daily tasks to handle. I'm at a point where the salary I'm getting is disrespectfully low for all the work I do. Should I ask for a raise? And if so, how do I go about asking without sounding greedy.

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
