What is the best part about your compensation package?
Uncapped commission and the way the promotions are merit-based.
Excellent PTO, strong benefits, great commission structure.
Review from Operations Dept
Commission is by the best aspect of compensation.
Review from IT Dept
the best part of compensation is vacation

I think the base could definitely be higher, and that we could provide better increases to our employees, but genuinely the overall structure is good.

The commission package is great.

the commission structure when we do a deal
Review from Sales Dept
Fair salary and good benefits
Review from Sales Dept
I like the uncapped commission and the ability to stack and improve your commission structure based on the deals you make. It is very merit based which makes it clear how to advance and progress in your career.
Review from Finance Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Base salary is terrible, set me back financially so much when I first started. Needs to improve as the housing market gets worse.
Review from Sales Dept
With the economy being how it is our base salary is not nearly high enough.
Review from Business Development Dept
a higher base salary would be helpful and add more stability.
Review from Operations Dept
I should have a way higher base salary than I do
Review from Sales Dept
Removal of not getting billing if under 100k
Review from Operations Dept
For >40 hours of work per week, the base salary of $45,000/year is quite low. Almost all other recruitment firms that I have applied to offer higher annual salaries for no greater than 40 work hours per week. And the commission structure is no different. Why would I choose Phaidon over other firms?
Review from Sales Dept
Given the rise in inflation and cost of living I would have expected a base salary adjustment. I do understand the role is lucrative from a commission standpoint, but while getting settled before closing deals a base adjustment would be fair, especially since it hasn't changed in a while
Review from Sales Dept
I think especially in this market, kids are getting paid nice base salaries 60-65k out of college 70-75k with a few years+ bonus structure.
Review from Sales Dept
If the base salary was livable
Review from Sales Dept
Higher base considering inflation the past year
Review from Sales Dept
Base is low for this area of the country
Review from Engineering Dept
Higher base salary, cost of living is very high
Review from HR Dept
Boston is one of the most expensive cities to live in. If you miss on commission one month it adds a new level of stress worrying about income.
Review from Sales Dept
To put it simply, just want to make more on my base salary.
Review from Legal Dept
Slightly underpaid base / deal shots not as frequent as expected
Review from Finance Dept
cutoff can be an issue as the commission based on monthly billing, get paid little if it's a tiny deal for that month
Review from Sales Dept
I think the commission structure is great, but the base salary could be higher for how many hours we put into this job.
Review from Engineering Dept
The base salary is a bit low compared to other similar agencies - the commission rates are great, but if someone has an off month the base is not livable for the Boston Area
Review from Sales Dept
Overall I believe the benefits are really positive, but the base salary is not competitive with the market
Review from Operations Dept
Higher base salary in line with market changes and more dividend options for non sales after lengthy tenure.
