Compensation Meaning

Currently interviewing for a job, and haven't come to the conversation about what the salary is but on the job posting it is listed as " Highly competitive and progressive commission structure"

What does this exactly mean? Base plus commission? Or just commission?

 

It doesn't seem very clear. I am not sure if the highly competitive refers to the" progressive commission structure" or a competitive base plus progressive commissions.

I would guess a reasonable base salary and commissions that increase with better performance.

"yeah, thats right" High-Five
 

What's the job title and what type of shop is it with? That may (or may not) provide some more clarity if we were to speculate on the comp structure.
