I know this rare especially in the same company. But has anyone been able to start in SMB at one company and land a ent role at another? How was the learning curve/ growing pains etc?

A little bit about my background I’ve been an AE for 6 months now and was put on a pip warning for only having an 80% attainment for the month. If you don’t hit 100% you get a pip warning.

I’m currently leading the team this month at 75% attainment with 7 selling days left.

I say all this because there is a good chance I will be on a pip next month unless I get extremely lucky. I’ve already been applying for other jobs a month ago and the only jobs I see on LinkedIn in my area is enterprise roles.

Would making that jump be too steep at this point in my career? Has anyone made that type of jump before?

So long story short I work in SaaS and I have only been a se since the beginning of the year. Q1 was my ramp up. We currently have a monthly quota (which I hate) and was put on a pip warning for having 80% attainment last month. If I don’t hit 100% I’ll be on pip. How would you handle these short sales cycles to close more deals in such a short time?

Right now I’m at 40% attainment but the months fly by fast. I’m putting in the dials and emails but need some closing advice if you have any to share.

Received a warning today for only hitting 80% for my monthly quota goal. Is it realistic for an account executive to hit 100% quota every month? I always thought an 80% quota was considered decent in sales. I’ve only been an SE for a quarter now so just curious on that.
