they are salaried positions in the mid to upper $20's. not exciting but they are hired with no experience. as i said, pay raises are once a year based upon their performance and relationship with their broker. the broker may or may not share their bonuses withthe assistant. there are a few assistants making 6 figures. many making $50K+. it is based on the size of the brokers bonus, obviously.

tw, what other people make is irrelevant. beginning salary is based on skills and local market conditions. she can go elsewhere if she believes she can find abetter deal. if an employee agrees to do a job for $X and the next year they are expected to do the same job for $X + 6%, that is the employee's decision. if the person wants to leave the business owner has to decide if keeping that employee is worth more money - often they are, in this case, definitely not.
