How realistic is it for me to pivot to tech sales after 10 years in FP&A, corporate strategy and M&A consulting for private equity clients? I sold and led projects for CFOs and CEOs, but don't enjoy finance anymore (plus the pay was low and hours were long).
Have been applying to BDR/SDR roles at FP&A SaaS and FinTech companies with no success.

Like I spend way too long overthinking my phrasing in communication lately…

Has anyone else experienced this?
Any advice on how to get through this?

Looking for some advice on a couple of offers I have.

The first offer is for an Account Executive position at a smaller company with a base of $50k and another $20k in OTE.

The second offer is for a BDR position at a larger and faster growing company with a base of $60k and another $20k in OTE. Also some stock options but they aren’t public yet.

I have 2 YOE as a BDR and think I could succeed in either position. Both have hybrid work set ups. Any thoughts or advice is appreciated! Thanks.
