Enterprise BDR positions, some SDR and BDR positions pay generally $70-$110k OTE. You could also shoot for AE positions which start at $120k-$150k OTE. This is in SaaS

Look at some SaaS companies manufacturing verticals. That's generally where the EV companies will sit. Your domain experience and understanding challenges of the customer would definitely be intriguing and get you a bite somewhere.

You’ll probably have to start as an SDR unless you have extensive experience in a particular vertical. SDRs can pull in 85+ though at the right spots. Compgauge is another resource to view sales salaries as well.

To be an account executive you usually have to have B2B experience....if you want to get your feet wet in tech SDRs are in high demand..pay is around 40-60k base but you get OTE based on your performance which can vary between 20-40k...usually all you need is a bachelor's degree for SDR...but I do health insurance and there's money there too but it's a hustle because you have to find your own clients to be successful BUT when you are independent you get mailbox money as long as your clients are your clients year after year and you also make your own hours..Medical sales reps get paid good too and usually you just need a bachelor's degree. You can also be an entry level recruiter as they make around 50k base and they get commission.

Newbie here, what is SDR?

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.

I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
