Looking fo some info on Adobe. I am in outside sales at Dell and saw a few roles at Adobe that seem interesting. Can someone help me understand what the different types of account executives do and how they work together?
Example: solution led vs industry led vs enterprise account manager

Thanks!

I've never been same of the exact differences myself. Hoping someone from Adobe can weigh in. But I imagine they're similar positions with slightly different perspectives. For example, I would assume that the enterprise AE is working with bigger name clients while the industry AE is working with clients of a specific strain (IE healthcare clients). They may overlap or consult a bit. But I have a hard time wrapping my head around such distinctions.

Industry is enterprise accounts and one person leads the account with a specialist support model. Solution led is you work on one solution and multiple salespeople call on the same accounts. One is farmer and other hunter. Hope this helps.

Sales culture is pretty toxic at this point, but it varies somewhat depending on team.

I find myself feeling like my team is toxic, but not in the way you’d usually say a work environment is toxic. Everyone’s friendly and a team player but there’s a certain pressure placed on our team by management to be number 1 (which we are, in our respective region). Everyone I talk to on the team feels stressed and burned out, EYE feel super stressed. It’s this pressure to over-perform that has me wondering if it’s really as bad as I think it is or if this is just what sales is?

Current comp is $85k Base and $115 OTE with a ceiling of $150k CAD/$120k US. Feel it's too little for my experience and they are taking perks away by the day.
Thinking of moving to I tech sales? Anyone else do it? What's comp look like?

Hi all - please set me straight. Am I on par with comp?

AdTech Sales - Account Executive. No experience in Sales, but was in client services with my company for 10 years.

Base 142 with 100% match, so 284 OTE. Accelerators after 100, which doubles up to 125. (101 to goal will garner 102 in commission, 105 will 110, caps out at 125 so max is 150% commission)

Q1 is looking good already so feel good about things. But curious if this is a good deal.
