I recently was hired as an account manager. Although the position is mostly sales where I am reaching out to clients and generating business. Anyone else doing a sales job on account manager position? I would also like to know what positions can I grow into as a account manager?

I previously worked as an MSP account manager and realistically it leads no where.

The upside is the more customers you pick up, if you're getting residuals in one way or another, you're building up a fat paycheck/book of business.

Hi all,

I'm currently working at Infosys as MSBI developer and looking for opportunity in any of Big 4. I noticed there is a job vacancy for the role I fit in PWC in Linkedin and here to check if anyone could help me with referral.

TIA.

Hi Fieshes, i don’t want to leave development but the job roles I’m getting now after i resigned are the business analyst roles and not the data science ones as i thought of them to be. . So will i be able to get to data science after these business analyst roles. Does business analytics include the data science and development. Or should i look for better opportunities.


Please help.

Since joining my company 3 years ago my target has increased 45% my basic has increased 3%.

Anyone else seen this trend?

I've swallowed it but seeing the pressure from the increased target and the stress causing I'm thinking that wasn't wise.

Career question: Currently making under-market in a role I excel at (inside sales), but little to no insight into any potential promotions/raises anytime soon due to current freezes. I was just offered a substantial increase in pay to leave IT sales (double my current base, plus bonus.) It’s still selling tech, but not complex data center kind of IT sales. How hard would it be to get back into IT sales later on if I leave for a year or two? Specifically looking to get into a field sales role?
