I had a first round phone interview with a hiring manager last Friday (one week ago). I felt it went well. Is it okay to email the recruiter to see if there is an update? Or is it better to just wait?

Totally okay to reach out

Always send a note after every convo indicating your interest or disinterest. If the company is good, they will be checking in with interviewers after every convo to get a sense of where you and they stand.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.
