EY1 - did they change kpi goals after you joined - ie managed revenue was introduced? If not, that’s what you signed up for.
Also - plenty of exec directors that sell as much or more than most partners.

Make it a point to talk to your relationship partner continually (during normal check ins) about timing to get into PCLDE as from there you should be 2-4 years away from potential admission and build your case. Remember that you’ll need 30 partners to be supportive of you and your case so network, team and deliver.

Sometimes we need a change of scenery and will do it even for less comp .

At least once it was totally worth it for me
