Is this fair?

I've been in sales for well over 3 years now and have witnessed opportunities I couldn't have ever imagined possible. Raised in a family that was perpetually affflicted by timidity, it took me a while to undo that conditioning and unleash my desires. I often hesitated to voice my opposition for the fear of rocking stability. However, I've changed quite a bit.

I recently got offered a role with a base of $100k and an OTE of $200k. No signing bonus was a bummer and I fought for it but in vain. It's a decent SaaS solution with remarkable brand recall and fast-growing market. I don't doubt the efficacy of the solution but I'm concerned about their tech stack. They use Seamless for data enrichment.

Also, does the comp seem fair?

I'll summarise your post first:

• Timid and humble background, now you've changed
• 3 years work-ex, joining new SaaS firm as Senior AE
• Base: $100k / OTE: $200k / Quota : $800k
• No Joining Bonus (you've fought already, they denied)
• Not a good tech stack (since they use Seamless)
• And your question is: Is the comp fair?

Yes.

Appreciate the summary
Would using Seamless be a red flag?

You can ask about territory before you start bro. Them not telling you is a much bigger red flag than seamless.

If you don't ask, you'll never get it. Worst case, you are told "no".
I've had to learn this too!

Seems like a good opportunity for right now, unless you got something better going for you.

Seems fair to me, but would need to know % who hit OTE and what the quota number is

Are you Targeted Fairly? Is Your OTE Achievable?
45% Yes - the majority of my team hits OTE, and we feel goals are in line
55% No - Ha! Only like 20% of sellers here hit OTE
