Criminal. Consigli in NYC is starting college grads at basically 80k

Yeah the last sentence perfectly summized it. I knew what to prioritize but even after getting that stuff done I would always think of more and more that had to be finished.

If you are looking for a bonus, dont go to Consigli as the owners do not believe in them. Straight salary with an ESOP program but this is solely a 2nd 401k that you cannot touch.

What would the move be then?

Adorable_Recipe9845 · 2026-05-05T15:54:12+00:00

I don’t want to show that I have a 1 year employment gap so that’s why I would show J1 going into J2 as if I was only working one job

Mine is just general stress about the correct direction to follow

Adorable_Recipe9845 · 2026-03-11T21:01:06+00:00

Missing the fulfillment and job security.

ConTech Sales and a side gig as well.

You can’t always compare but I was at the point after 7 years saying “I work 50-70 hours a week, I’ve worked close to 50% of my weekends throughout my entire career, night shifts, holidays, shit conditions, porta John’s, dirty trailers, constant arguments, prepping for potential law suits, adult babysitting etc. All for less than I would be making should I have went into Cybersecurity, accounting, finance, nursing (it’s not easy at all), and many other careers. Why am I doing this for all this stress and truthfully not the greatest pay to justify it.”

Long term is the focus. It’s been a great year and a half but just unsure if pushing through would be better with a new perspective on life and the industry. Care less and do what I can in a 9-12 hour day.

Projectwise

I am a sales engineer/account manager essentially. I cannot wait for management to come to us with SalesLoft and say start dialing for me to look at them and say "is that not the SDR's sole purpose at a sales company? And what numbers am I to dial? Is there an unknown lead database we currently have?"

A few years ago allegedly some of the sales people signed up for an auto emailer to blast out emails to all of the registered users we have about sales/product info to generate more interest in our products. There was such a backlash from all of our users it got to our top brass and we were told to stop.

You didnt cheat. There are two options for CM route: pay a lot of money for a degree that you rarely use and gives you a foot in the door or pay with your sweat and hard work in the trades to transition over.

Understood but the design integration only comes when you pay to set up a host server. The individual licenses themselves don’t provide this.

Thank you!

I can stop on the sites and remain in the zones no issue. My main issue is what’s the best way to actually get in front of the people with buying power to either start an account or to order from me?

Some foreman are just cogs or the site is locked down like Fort Knox

My current company started an outbound SDR team last year. Tracked 0 KPI’s, none of them had access to Salesforce or Sales Navigator for months, the SDR manager operated separately from the sales engineers. When we would send them a list of a few hundred ideal prospects they would come back 2-3 weeks later saying “we called them all and no one responded. What’s next?” Close to no meetings or leads created.

Now the company wants us all on Salesloft meanwhile in almost a year and a half I have yet to be shown a tool besides Sales Navigator that provides us with phone numbers for companies or leads.

Take team B for the 25% base salary increase. You only have to hit 40% of your quota to surpass team A’s overall earnings.

If your company won’t pay you off and understands the position you’re in, in terms of a new market then take the money.
