I’m thinking of leaving my role in June. We’re paid quarterly commission checks a pay period (month) after the close of the period. So Q2 will be paid out on August 1.
Do you think I will miss out on my earned commission if I leave? I also have a stock vest coming up in September so I’m wondering if I just suck it up for the summer and leave a little later.

I am a PhD student in chemistry on my final year, with some publications but no industry experience. What advice could you give me to get Research Scientist positions at big companies? Considering that I am foreigner national, do companies even bother the hassle of applying for a visa for an employee without "industry" experience?

Hi guys. I need your help. I am currently searching for a job in the Consulting space. I have applied directly through their career website to EY and McKinsey, but I haven't heard any response. If I apply through job portals like Indeed, Naukri, do I have a better chance of hearing back from them?

What holiday party did you get?
Anyone living close to an office, got a holiday party with food and drinks, and the venue started open for them until around midnight. Our remote workers got a one hour party w a DJ and trivia that let you win gift cards. Yeah it was nice to win a gift card but I found it lame in comparison to hanging out with my team in real life.

I am trying to move from my farming role back to an outbound prospecting position. I have a couple screening calls for some pretty awesome companies and I would love some pointers on how to beat the objection that I have only been in my farming role since June. How would you sell the fact you want to go back to SDR, I am sick and tired of non revenue generating activity and miss having a list to attack.

I’m a Mid Market Account Executive , just signed, and my annual TC is $250k , base is $110,000 , $10k signing bonus, $80k in options, and $110,000 variable. Is this right for the market?

Hi All! Would anyone be willing to give me a referral to an Account Executive role at MSFT, AMZN, or GOOGL. Currently Account Executive at Dell and foucused on Cloud services (yes we have cloud services at dell lol)?

Question for any/all who will answer. Long time individual contributor(12+ years) to a fortune 100 company. Past 7+ years have earned between 600k-800k /year after building out a GTM PE practice which currently does $30M+. Looking to take that framework and replicate for any startup or mid market company with direct GTM B2B looking to accelerate revenue. What’s a reasonable ask on equity vs earned income. Thinking 2-4% and 300-400k/ year. Thoughts?

Don’t assume that more likes and comments directly lead to sales. I’ve had posts with 20 likes that generated me more leads than a post with 100 likes.

Sales is a funny thing.

Big pipeline doesn’t mean more revenue.

Accurate pipeline does

I know some times this job is hard, it’s not all steaks and martinis but that rush when you are at 99.2 percent for the the quarter and that last deal that would push you over the top comes in is exhilarating! Happy end of quarter!

What are the best SDR courses or schools out there? Be 100% transparent

What are some “typical” career paths for Account Executives other than working up towards the largest enterprise AE roles. After being in sales for 6 years, I’m relatively naive to any other than “leadership” and wonder what other options to consider are out there. I’d even be open so some not so typical ones that people have enjoyed/found success in. Thanks in advance!

Hey all- I’m a L&D Professional with some sales experience. I want to jump into Sales L&D but many roles require sales experience. I’ve helped close complex sales for large scale project work but have never been held accountable to monthly revenue targets since it wasnt my primary role with the exception of a brief time spent as an SDR. Looking for input if I should just go for Sales L&D positions or start as an AE and then apply for Sales L&D. Currently have interview for AE role with Gartner.

What are the best companies to be an AE?

Hi all, looking to make the switch to tech sales (with no sales experience). I think I will have to take a slight pay cut to get into the industry. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has had to do this. Did it work out? Are you enjoying it? Or is there a way I can avoid the pay cut? Would only be by about 6k. TIA!
