Those roles are super competitive. To do ‘good work’ with the backing of a major company is a rare combination. Lots of people wanting to do that.

Thanks MC1. I have felt the pain firsthand. Tons of networking calls with Partners but nothing beyond that.
To those of you who are currently in this field, how did you find your role? And did you take a pay cut / level cut?

I’ve worked in sales for 12 years (8 years retail sales and management, 4 years inside tech sales and management). I’m feeling the burn and looking for something else in the tech field. I’m making $140k. I have a college degree but no marketing, engineering, or product experience. What other departments/jobs could I jump to and still keep close to my OTE?
