I've always loved the idea of working on commission. But the problem is we're moving towards a culture of punishing on commission and rewarding on experience / perceived effort. I wonder how many columnists who write highly trafficked articles are getting bonuses? Or Raises? My bet is very few, and the few who do get them are fighting hard for them. It's sad, because I've seen the same thing happen in my past working at an agency. People on highly unprofitable projects eventually get fired/demoted, while people who are routinely running 150-200% of their billable capacity are not rewarded.
