That does seem low. I'd definitely try and negotiate for more. Hopefully your other offer is better.

Is this for an inside role?

So is it 90k base then more for OTE or 90k total?

Have a big interview tomorrow. The question I dread the most is about why you’re looking for a new job. The honest answer is that there isn’t enough work to go around at my agency and I want to get ahead of the inevitable layoffs. What’s the best way to tell them this? Do I just make something else up entirely?
