You will definitely make more at ML.  But that’s if you make it long enough.

So at ML, say that start me out at $40k a year base, is that pretty much all I’m making my first 3 years, or are there realistic bonuses and commissions added to that?  With a $40k base and meeting all quotas and expectations, what kind of total income would I have my first 3 years there?

  Thanks!

I guess that G4 will just have to wait.

So seriously though, at ML is your base pretty much your entire income for the first 3 years, or do you earn commissions on top of that?  I know they have strict quotas that have to be met to stay with the company, so meeting those quotas, how much above the base could I expect to earn those first few years?


(I know this is kind of a "call and ask them yourself" question, but since I won't be applying for another month or so I was just curious if anyone here knows)   Thanks!

Snags,

  Kudos on your creative use of one of my favorite Grandpa Gustafson lines from Grumpy Old Men (spoken in the classic Burgess Meredith growl):

"Well, you can wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which gets filled first!" 

The don't make 'em like that anymore ...

they both suck and you’ll probably end up being fired for lack of production so why bother.

We can’t all rake in the ez money, but at least have some faith in a caucasian brotha.
