Would you take a job selling a service you are completely unfamiliar with for more money?

Right now. 150k base, commission varies but averages 40-60k
New company 185k base, 700 car allowance, commission varies.

How much does the commission vary? If the low end is only 10% over what you average, I'd stay put. If it's 20%+, it's worth the gamble in my opinion.

If the base is there, then that’s a cushion for learning the new service. Also curious about the commission variance. Have you ever jumped into something completely different, or is this a first?

Yea!

Hey, OP, what did you do?

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…
