I work as BDM and have no commission. I'm not happy at all for that as I am bringing in quite a lot of deals.

How common is it to have this role without commission?

Usually there are commissions always attached to the role but I have heard of companies who behave like paupers..

What I would suggest is have a discussion with your direct reporting manager and showcase him the value that you have contributed and then demanding your say - in this way it justifies your cause…

Good luck!

From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Hello All,

I recently got a job working as a BDR for an enterprise rep. We sell a SaaS product for other tech companies. It is a new realm for me as I have been primarily an AE throughout my career.

Thanks for the help!
