I don't know where to put this, but: I recently got a job offer for a startup design firm located in Arizona. While I was giddy with joy getting a job offer, I was quite wary about how I would be getting paid as a Designer for the company. The email states that "You will be paid on commission base as a company employee," while breaking down the payment structures per project. The job is "employment at will". Now I never heard of a firm paying designers based on commission based payment but it does make sense to get paid for work you've done and only for the work you've done especially when it's a startup firm. Is this normal? And should I take this offer?

Xandu posted:At will employment is irrelevant, but it seems like they're trying to structure you as an independent contractor, except for the line about "as a company employee." Ask for more details, if there's a commission, is there also a base salary? How much are you getting paid per project, and how long is each project? Most likely, it would just be a side job I guess. I might take the offer just to gain some experience and if it is indeed scummy, I'll just walk away. But thanks guys for your input. I really appreciate it.
