Curious what other international sales engineers make? Been with my company 8 years (it was my first “big kid job” and I’ve put-survived my last 3 bosses to firing/quitting. I’ve also inherited all their sales duties and went from a sales team of 2 to 4 to 3 and now just me! I make $75K plus $25K at target. Target was set when there was myself & two managers. I’ve hit target against all odds.

I’m curious what the head of the GSA believes she benefits by her current actions. I mean, she will never be confirmed to run any agency again ever.

Received an offer from a top FAANG for a 250% increase in TC. However, I was initially interviewing for a position that was remote and yet the final offer does not provide that option, non-negotiable. I have a wife and 2-year-old child and another one due in 7 months, and currently live near both sets of grandparents.

Is working at a top FAANG really worth that kind of cost? I'm leaning heavily 'no' but it's not making it easy to sleep at night knowing I'm sitting on this kind of offer!
