I'm interviewing for a SaaS AE role this week after getting rif'd from another company.

During my interview I'd like to ask the leaders how they've set their reps up for success and what the company is doing to make sure they don't have the same issues as many other companies seem to be having.

Is there a respectful way to ask and see what the health of the company is?

How important is having a bachelors degree for a career in sales? I’m a 22yo/M and have been in sales for almost two years. I took a break from Uni during Covid because I lost funding for school, so i ended up getting a entry level sales job and working my ass off since then. Changed jobs twice now and am starting my new position as a software account executive and will end the year breaking six figures, but my parents keep pushing me to go back to school. What should I do? Any advice would help

Currently at a Startup SaaS company where I’ve already been promoted from an Enterprise BDR to an ISR. My goal is to eventually grow into an SE, to bridge my coding and sales skills. My VP of Sales and I were discussing career progression acknowledging I’m keen on getting there, but I have to fill my experience gap. So I have been told I can move into either an AE role or CSM this year, so my question is, which role, in your opinion, would best serve me on the way to my goal to become an SE?

My company is going to shift me from a base + comm to a base only. My boss explained it as the base will be much higher. I manage a BDR team and am currently making 65k base + uncapped comm from AE deals and when the team hits quarterly numbers. About a year and a half ago I was getting ready to leave for a senior bdr position that was going to pay 100k a year and my current company counter offered me and I stayed. I like my job but am I getting a short end of the stick by going to base only?

Nearly a year in on a shrinking SDR team.
I am finding it increasingly unlikely that I'll be able to get off this team over to MM AE until the empty seats have been filled and brought up to speed.
At this point a move sideways into an AE role elsewhere is looking better and better.

Should I be patient or just take the leap?
Any tips on best positioning that in an interview?

Hello! I am thinking about switching from SMB IT sales to an Account Executive role at AIM. Any fish on this bowl that can comment on their experience as an AE at AIM or similar consulting firms? I want to know what I may be getting myself into.

This company I am interviewing with is not proposing a base salary and an OTE. They are asking me to create it and I really need guidance here. It’s an AE role in medical SaaS sales for orthopedics surgery. What do I need to ask? So far I know that they cover medical insurance, there is no 401k, and there are private company stock options. It’s mainly inside sales with maybe 10% travel.

My thought was 75k base and 110k OTE. But they are saying to lower the base and increase OTE.

Just finished an interview for an AE role at a high-growth SaaS organization.

The interviewer told me that their quotas are very high - barely any of their sales reps hit quota YoY. They mentioned, “goals are high to push our reps. hence our YoY growth”

Is this a red flag?
