My commissions have always been a percentage of sales up to a certain point (usually sales target) and then a higher percentage of commissions after that.
If you don’t understand your commissions at work speak to your sales manager. If they can’t/wont explain it then suggest you both go to HR for them to explain it.
Not knowing how you’re going to get paid in a sales role is like starting a job as a surgeon but they won’t tell you where the scalpels are.
