Another rep getting caught trying to work two SaaS jobs on my team.. What is going on!

Second time this has happened in a year. I always thought this new rep was a bit sketchy by the work he was doing everyday (faking calls). But he finally got caught!

What is with people? Doesn't anyone have any integrity? Or am i the mark and should I be trying to work two SaaS jobs hahah!

Why not get 4 jobs like a real salesman (joking)

Over-employed is a real thing, I can’t believe people do it in sales since LinkedIn would give it away

I once had a team mate that worked for another company that sold into the same personas in the same industry. He was flat out killing it because he had access to two different CRMs and knew who was using what and who was evaluating what. Not sure it was legal, but they def made it work.

That's not conflict of interest? Or was other company in completely different field?

Crazy times. I usually see this in the SWE world but occasionally i'll see/hear something about someone working two sales gigs.

Being an AE or an SDR especially requires so much time and attention, how do they manage it, is the question.

I bet the one who got caught, won't be able to answer this now. But still...

LT Sadness last summer has a nice daily post. Seems like it’s unsustainable for more than a month

I recently stumbled upon the Sub-Reddit of “Over-Employed” - it’s really fascinating. Basically, the message is: when you’re an exceptional employee, you get more money by working two average performances than one great. Especially, because most companies won’t pay you double if you output double (e.g. as a SWE).

But also common understanding in this sub is that sales is one of the few jobs where it does NOT make sense, as your pay is linear to your performance.

Imagine your daily metrics hahah working two sales jobs... Alright I gotta make 50 calls, 30 personalized prospecting emails, oh I also have 5 disco calls today between my two jobs and two virtual work happy hours at the same time.

Ok, I worked with one of the best AE's of all time. At one time, he worked for 7 Mfgs at the same time. Tech products all non-competitve products. If anything, complimentary products. All 7 companys found out. 2 fired him. 1 made him take a 50% salary cut, the other 4 kept paying him as if nothing transpired. If you work remotely, I could not see someone not getting away with it continuously. Separate phones laptops, and you could have 1 linkedin profile with everything you'd normally put on it, w/no employers listed & no work history. Saw a profile like that today!

My job at a small growth stage private company is like 4 jobs. I don’t know how people do it…..plus it ruins your reputation.

The world is smaller than you think.

"Maybe it's time to add ‘SaaS job juggler’ to the job description! 😂 But seriously, I didn’t know ‘faking calls’ was a skill set—guess some people are just overachievers in all the wrong ways!"

I can’t imagine having to sell 2 products and do it well. How long was he there before he got caught?
