First thing I’d do is ask the recruiter or hiring manager directly: “What % of reps hit quota here last year?” If they dodge the question or give you fluff like “our top performers are crushing it,” that’s a red flag. You want to hear that at least 60–70% are consistently hitting OTE.
Their advice are ALL ”Spot ON” My only Q’ was are you already in NYC… If not Cost of Living.. this may not be a pay increase @ All.
I’m a Commercial AE in the Midwest, my base is 120K, 240K OTE. I think you need to ask for more.
You have to ask (preferably in writing) how many reps on each team hit quota for each of the past 2-3 years. This weeds out any outliers.
If at least 2/3rds of each team is hitting quota, it's realistic. If it's a 1/3rd or less, then you should reconsider it.
This is extremely low for another AE in myc. I started af $160k base 2 year signing bonus of $80k, 100 stock shares before the split (2000 today) plus my OTE $300k-$350k
