Win this one or lose it, it's semi-irrelevant because occasionally these things come up, if you've been shafted you give less away, if it's all friendly then you get more / give more.

Nothing better than the moral high ground, Scamp. Way more important than the short term money.

I got told on the sly that it's been suggested the other person thinks about the long term gain.
I might come out of this with cash, with long term gain and a slither of moral elevation left.

Then, smartly waited until a deal came along and put my hand out.
There are WAY too many arguments in recruitment (and other sales offices) over deals that aren't done / aren't going to be done / are miles from being done.
If it was the other way round I'd have given 25%. Genuinely. Because I'd expect it (and currently do).
We'll see how it plays out.

Who works out what a bonus is worth before the deal comes in? Everyone. No matter how much they protest.

I have my bonus written into my contract so I don't get into any unseemly schemozzles in work, but then again I am not competing against work colleagues. The more I get usually means the more they get.

I get my commission from doing my job. It's uncapped, it's based on what I do and directly linked to nothing but what I bring in. 40% seems a bit light sometimes though...
Same same but different.

Well I totally forgot so felt a little guilty when I remembered and came on here to find out what I missed.
Would be up for a beer before the summer. We are leaving for good after that. 10 years in the sandpit. Enough.
It's been emotional and after a quarter of my life here, a little nervous moving on.
