Exit opps after a missed election run?

Currently in prep (alongside sponsors) to put forth election case for next year… elections in April, June 1 promo date, process starts in Nov.

Sales are solid past few years, increasing YoY, solid platform and room to expand. This yrs numbers have been a bit shakier - things aren’t closing and I might miss the target by 500k-750k (2M target).

Unlikely that this is the kiss of death, but want to prep - those who didn’t make it - what was your exit?

It’s the same exit opps as anyone else in your career. Can you get a direct admit role elsewhere in PA and what clients would hire you in private.

Generally partner track is more about ability and potential then current year figures, but every place has their own viewpoint on that.

I’m currently a Grade 11 at Cisco. With the recent pay structure changes my annual comp will be $150k + 12% bonus. I live in a large metro area in the middle of the US. I’m looking to move around the company so that I can make commission but I don’t want to be an account manager. Can anyone tell me if there are Customer Success Managers, etc positions that manage customers post sale and have a similar range base as me with commission plans? I’m just trying to understand income potential.

Considering a jump from Chicago to New York. I truly love living in Chicago and how far this salary gets me but I definitely want to try to make it in New York.

The only problem is my significant other has a lot of negative opinions about New York. I ultimately want to return to DC but I feel like a few good years in New York would be really good for me. In terms of a place to live, where in Manhattan can I find a place that's similar to River North in Chicago?
