The main allure for me is being able to vent and joke about sales bullshit with complete anonymity, Mark A from Oracle.

Having your engagement rewarded with a few toys doesn’t hurt either. And, occasionally, some people drop insights that help gain perspective.

However, I think what you’re mostly referring to is the job recruiting part of this whole thing and I agree, that part is complete trash. #SorryNotSorry 💁🏻‍♀️

Switch to anon and leverage the community to solve your challenges as a sales leader.

The jobs are fake, but the ball busting is real. We give out a few jabs, but if you commit to being a part of the community you just might derive value.

Looks like he’s too high on that Oracle koolaid to see the value here 🤷🏼‍♂️

And then again, he may not. He might be completely lacking of self-awareness. It takes a little around here.

Go back to LinkedIn then

Whenever I ask a thought out question about something I’m dealing with/roadblocks I get 6-10 responses with well written advice from sales leaders and fellow SDRs. Who wouldn’t want that?

Sorry you don’t know how find value here Mark A. From Oracle

Just consider it as a free consultation site for your business sales related issues if you have one OR to give you some valuable tips for your career if you need one!

The value is the community and possibly the sales roles.

Another great case of “this isn’t for me, so it’s useless to everyone.” Classic. Never gets old.

Ha…the world is full of “ball busting”…no one needs to sign up for that. Best of luck to others that signed up looking for something more productive.

Two sides to this site. One is the recruiting arm. The other is the forum, unrelated, and the antidote to LI platitudery. Anonymity is how we thrive, tbh. I’ve learned a lot from my fellow AEs. Maybe they’ve learned a little from me. It’s not all ball-busting, but it also isn’t a big sales circle-jerk like LI mostly is.

Not sure what’s up with invitations, because I don’t get them and would ignore them anyway, because anonymity is important to me here.
