Be honest, do you really love your job? I get asked a lot if I like what I do. I don’t. But I like the compensation.

At “junior” Aso and below job satisfaction won’t be high because you’re purely execution and in the trenches. It’s why comp is so high relative to YOE.

As you move up, comp doesn’t grow at the same rate but other aspects and responsibilities do, which greatly increase job satisfaction.

Is it as satisfying as say Firefighters, teachers, or brain surgeons, no definitely not, but it can be rewarding depending on what you’re doing. MMIB can give you those “fuzzy” feelings when you sell a company and a shareholder cries out of happiness that the company is going to the right person.

No, same boat as you

I do… obviously the comp is what keeps me happy too, but I feel accomplishment with my role.

That’s great RBC 1. What are your top accomplishment moments?

Fellow enterprise tech sales fish, I’m interested to hear your perspective. I’ve been in a rut lately and seriously considering leaving sales. I think it’s primarily fueled by one thing:
After a 6 mo cycle I closed a large deal (4x the average deal size) prior to receiving delayed 2022 comp plans. The deal counts as a 2022 deal. On last years comp plan it would’ve paid out at 10%. This year it pays out at a measly 4%.

How do you/have you navigated your way through and out of these situations?

Could someone help by mentioning the salary ranges I can expect?

Also any tips on networking would be appreciated. Thank you!
