I’ve created a strong network with Senior Lvl Execs @ my current company, and work on high level task forces to develop enterprise biz. I’m ready to move beyond the AE Role, but not into traditional sales leadership. I’ve also been interviewing b/c our systems are a mess currently. On the verge of getting offers higher than my current pay, I’d be starting from 0 with building reputation, book of biz, etc. My exec mentor suggested I pitch new roles & $$ and she’ll endorse. Thoughts?

Would moving into a new role at your current company be enough to compensate for the messed up systems you mentioned? If so, then give it a shot - can't hurt to try. If not, then move on.

I think I would escape a significant amount of the issues of our systems, which are hopefully temporary anyway. How long the fix will take, I’m unsure of. But I know it’s a high priority to get it resolved

Hmm, would the company be prospectively alright? If not, I think it'd be best to secure your offers rather than staying at a company undergoing internal concerns.

Yes, no issues that would cause profitability problems or layoffs if that’s what you mean
