This industry is a joke. It’s putting more and more strain on employees. Starting to hope they just rip the bandaid off by all going under. Let us all just find new careers. These agencies shouldn’t exist as a viable business if this is the way they treat people. Happy Thanksgiving.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.
