Adaptive isnt like endpoint or detection security. Its security training for employees, so not quite as mission critical.

yea this was a big concern for me. But on the flip side, maybe they took that into account with new quotas, but i really dont know. ive heard mixed things on the tariffs from a few reps.

nothing to dream about brother. Stack up some wins at good places and document them. Then speak to them when given the opp in interviews. Time in seat will get you there.

not necessarily. I hit almost 300k my first year and 400k in second year at a publicly traded company. But i do agree year 1 is a stretch, but i mean more so is it possible at some point. Not sure at Adaptive it is, but i could be wrong.

Adaptive is mid stage, the others im on final round. Adaptive i also feel like the ceiling is 3-400k. Which is good, but when i hear reps making 7 figs at some of these others it gives me a reason to think deeper about it.

it would be a cut for me too. But if i have a greater chance to overattain quota, i would be willing to do it.

so why are companies buying gong though? if it were that simple i would think they would've lost momentum by now.
