Sales Culture - MMAE Samsara Employee Review

1. You're underpaid by market standards. You'll need to avg 200% to make market 2. Your daily activities and tasks are micromanaged 3. The buying persona is typically unprofessional 4. The product itself (while ahead of the competition) is not a core part of the business and will never be treated as a crucial business decision (forecasting impossible) Okay now why I left... 1. Culture. Culture. Culture. 2. You're not invested in as a professional. 3. The overall growth attracts high sales talent but then you step into what seems like an entry level sales role. 4. Boys club. You're in the club or you're not. If you're not sure, you're not in. 5. Many aspects of sale in this vertical are beyond reps control (financing, financing, financing) - but you don't hit once and you're put on plan. Has nothing to do with rep competence or effort. 6. For the sake of credibility - I never missed quota. My avg attainment was over 300% and I chose to leave and haven't regretted it for a minute. My advice to those considering. If you have a weird sense, like you're not quite sure if its a good fit.. go with your gut. Writing this review because I accepted a job here relying on credibility of 5.0 star Glassdoor review rather than my gut. You're welcome.
