[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He should apply for a bdr position. Databricks is hiring, they pay peanuts for these roles, but he can get a promotion to an ae in a year[/quote]

Really? His last OTE was $400k. That job is$85k. Isn’t that career suicide[/quote]

The days of 400k OTE for mediocre salespeople are over. [/quote]

Why insult him?  He always hit his numbers and was top salesman even when he was laid off (his manager had a personal relationship she was promoting over him). [/quote]

NP.  I designed comp plans for tech companies in a past life.
If he was top-performing talent at his last half-a-dozen companies, they would've changed the comp structure for him to keep him around. The fact that he kept hopping around is a big red flag.[/quote]

Would it have been better to just stay at a company even if they aren't raising comp, or was he screwed either way from a sales performance perspective.

I wish I understood his business more; his linked in says he is looking for his next "play in sales" which sounds so weird to me, but I guess that's the lingo in his niche. [/quote]
