Re: lowering hour rate and commission for not meeting goal.

All kinds of pay arrangements are legal so long as the employee knows in advance what the deal is, and the minimum wage laws aren't violated.

A new pay scale could also be a breach of a contract, but it doesn't seem to be a contract metter here.
