Has anyone worked in Sales at Samsara? I’m being interviewed for a Mid-Market position and the OTE is 170K which seems a bit low. The recruiter said most mid-market reps are making well into 200K with stock options and what not, with some top performers getting to 300K. Is this realistic because I’m not seeing that on glassdoor at all. I’m also interviewing with several other companies for similar positions targeting 220K with bases around 110K. I’m not sure I can go back to a base under 100K.

Hi I’ve worked at Samsara in sales and made over 300k. Those numbers are not at all exaggerated

$300k is definitely possible once you’re ramped as a Mid Market rep. I would say the majority over achieve but not everyone’s making $300k+. Top 10% are though

I looked at Samsara until I reached out to 2 people on LinkedIn and realized it wasn't for me. Product seems cool, but they didn't seem confident they were going to hit their number and didn't seem like alot of support for the AE's, they said it was very much a start up mindset still. (Which I get)

Glassdoor had pay way higher than 180k, if I remember correctly as that is what made me start looking at them.

I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
