I have over a decade and still make under $100K. So don’t feel bad!

Hard to say, depends on where you live, what type of product you sell, how much it's sold for, and to what type of businesses you sell it to. If you make $125k a year and love your job and the people you work with then that is a blessing. Lots of people making $250k+ hate their jobs and the people the work with and don't know why they are so unhappy.

Depends. How big are the deals you’re working? If you’re closing deals between $25-150k and have a quarterly quota of $200 give or take, then you certainly should negotiate for at least $160OTE. But depends on where you live too. My suggestion is if you live in the Bay Area
