The rub of it is I'm a Growth AE at a blue chip SaaS company that you all would know. I've only been here for a few months, don't love the culture. It's steady work in a turbulent economy, 60/40 base to OTE.
Was approached by a Series A startup who recently received their funding and are running about 75% inbound right now. I'd be the 4th AE. My Salary would go up about $10k and my OTE would go up by $45k. No equity. No non-recoverable during ramp. I like the product, like the space they sell it into, and the people seem genuine.
While the added salary bump and OTE potential is nice. feels like i'm taking risk without the equity upside. I'm also leaving probably 15k or so of commission on the table.
I miss new logo, i like being a builder, AND it's a tough economy right now to leave a steady growth/renewal role.
What else should I be evaluating?
