Context: a seller on another team will take 3 months of maternity leave in Q1 2022. Our business is largely relationship based (we take people out and they give us business when they need us). In my head, you could argue 1 month is “covering” for someone. But three months to maintain + grow a large book of business? That’s a lot of work on top of my existing account deck.
My boss says situations like this are the reason we make a base salary, but does three months sound excessive without compensation?
Maybe I’m just a greedy asshole.
