Five questions to ask before you sign
- What percentage of the team hit target last year?
- Is there a draw, floor or guarantee while ramping?
- Where do accelerators kick in, and are they capped?
- Is the territory proven or being built from scratch?
- Can the plan change mid-year, and who decides?
Model: variable = OTE minus base, paid linearly to 100% of target, then at the accelerator multiple above 100%. Real plans vary: thresholds, cliffs, caps and quarterly gates all change the picture, which is exactly why the five questions matter. General information only, not financial advice.
