For about a year now, I've been feeling that I was underpaid at my current job. I went to my boss and gave a pitch for a raise which he agreed I deserved a raise. He said his hands were currently tied ( which I do know is true ) and he wants to give me a raise.
Since then, I have been interviewing for other jobs and got an offer for~30% more than my current salary. It's a sales job so the compensation package is a little different which is what I'm having issues with.
Current offer included 70% base, 30% sales incentive plan, which the hiring manager said almost all of the sales position receive. I have a hard time just saying ok, to a completely unknown off 30% of the salary.
How do I ensure I get the 30% incentive plan, like I was told? My first thought was to ask to see a previous employee pay stub, name obviously removed. Any other thoughts?
I've been burned before taking managers word so I'm not making that mistake again.
EDIT ; for clarity, I DO know the Mark I need to hit to receive 100% of the incentive. The problem is I have no idea what the account current sells/ year so they could be inflating that amount significantly
