Used to do lots of work for them as outside counsel and interacted fairly frequently with their in-house lawyers. It seems like a “not too intense” environment from what I witnessed, but that could’ve just been me looking at it with rose-colored glasses whilst slogging away as an associate.

My sales lead just gave me my quota for the year. Its increased 120% from last year. I asked if my peers experienced the same increase and the answer is No because I have more experience and up for promo this year. Our bonuses are a % of quota achieved meaning it’s harder for me to get a bonus. Do you think this is fair? What would you do? For additional context, I crushed my quota last year but I feel like I’m being punished now.
