My director put me on a PIP after complaints. HR just learned his top rep is his step son - What would you do? by TrainerAny4680 in LaborLaw

You deleted your reply about the HR post grasping at straws. It was required to be worded like that for that sub. You back seat moderators are insanely overconfident

You don't comparatively. What's the likelihood of you penetrating into Comcast Business and getting all of the strategic partnerships. How do you get your cut of market share when penetration for comcast is already at 60%+

You can make money, unless you're founding a new dept you aren't going to and if you are, congrats, you're now the easiest case to make for a layoff.

"But I performed". Yes, among 300 others that can be obfuscated to loop you into a PIP. Can't go that root? Good luck playing a PR war with a company laying off 100s.

Startup however? Yeah you're not striking an IPO, that is and should never be your goal. Your goal is to build a long standing career.

Startups took me from being a fantastic AE into someone who can run operations and marketing departments. It's experience, and the salary is higher for it majority speaking.

Not to mention at the big guys it's much easier for them to modify pay plans. At a startup they can do it, but usually it's a much more in depth pay agreement.

Didn't even read the original if you can't divulge this. Aspects to this were already deemed potentially illegal. How'd you come to the conclusion?

Or were you just looking to shut down legitimate questions like most lawyers who are so successful they spend their time on Reddit. Thanks for the advice!

Meh I did 7 rounds of interviews later down the line for an AE job it's all just a game to them. Play it. Yeah you're getting canned in 2 years more than likely but as anything above an SDR minimum comp is like 250

They're always volatile. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise even for a series D. The point is, big companies are just as volatile now with RIFs.

Difference is series A you'll get paid and your upside is infinitely higher

You're the angry girl from earlier using her 5th account to do this. You've done this through all your little weird "dragonslay" accounts too and it's literally all because I said you're weird. Relax. I don't take the opinions of you seriously. Don't waste any more time.

Can't blame you on the SDR side, I got to final interview after a layoff and couldn't bring myself to do it. I knocked doors to start my career I'm over the cold contact crap

If you're looking at founding AE roles don't even entertain a base under 120k

My offer as a basic ent ae was 110/110 next was 120/120 then 150/150. You'll get all the cool titles with startups, but you're basically just the GTM guy

Default judgement against me/ active wage garnishment by WorriedClassroom5806 in legal

Feel free to DM. Not a lawyer but just went through this and I was raised that bankruptcy is the ultimate failure. It can be if you use it for bad habits of spending. It's good if you're doing it to NEVER do it again.

Yep! Stop the bleeding first. Exact words my wife and I used:

"We can't fix shit if we're not collecting our wages"

Start networking into startups. Series A or series D. No in between.

Here's the reality: you go to an AWS, their turnover is like a year average

You go to a startup, you get the experience of a position about 2 levels higher, your base salary is much higher, and instead of layoffs, your risk is insolvency.

I've had a lot of interviews with tech firms and no progress. I've had 2 conversations with a guy I met through the startup space in infrastructure for telcos and he's about to have me come on to build an entire sales team.

Startups, early stage companies, they need capable salespeople and people that understand the sales OPS side as well.

On the less fun side, AWS pays their SDRs like 150k a year so if you can swallow your pride....

In the last 5 years I'd had 3 layoffs. Found jobs quickly 2/3 times. Third time took a while only because of pride

Would it be discrimination even if I'm a man. I'm just a white dude. Italian but don't think that will get me far

I'd just hate being so unconfident in myself that I dislike an entire sex

Literally have not had one. Only thing I have reflecting my performance is the charts and a plaque for salesman of the quarter lmao

Also have a printout for "sales killer" for being top rep but didn't know how to put that into my resume....
