A yt man threw a temper tantrum; now I have to “share” my account with him…… no one would answer questions about what happens if I close? Do I share commission? Does he? My manager said “they’ve never shared accounts before”….. Unrelated I’m told by my manager to go after an account & that whoever gets a meeting gets the account. I booked a meeting w/ a black woman…. Then was told another AE has a relationship w/ a higher up so the account is now his; to invite him to the meeting. See comments

I did not do that and let the meeting get cancelled…. Then my VP introduced me to a Black woman he met at a networking event. We went to lunch, got report, and she explicitly stated that she wants to work with me. A yt woman who is not in sales, not in our company but a subsidiary threw a tantrum that she should “run lead on all meetings” because she put her in the list to be invited. My VP said no, it stays with me. I am the lead…. Whelp yesterday she had a fit and guess who’s running point. I was told to be gracious and go with it. I am tired…..

Anyone deal with this before: I inherited a severely under developed team including a sr analyst who clearly was doing the bare minimum, if that. Over the last 6 months I have had to coach him and correct simple mistakes in his work and recently it got so bad that I told him he would receive a low rating in his evaluation. He lashed out, involved HR saying he doesn’t understand why, and now my review points out stuff that I would have let slide.
