Review from Sales Dept
Splunk has fallen behind the industry in pay, and they intend to stay behind if not reduce pay further.
Would like to be able to increase my base salary. My OTE has been the same for the last 5 years. The only way to increase that would be to move to a different team or into the field.
Review from Sales Dept
I have been promoted internally a few times and I know people coming in externally get a better package than I do even though I generate more revenue than they do as a quota carrier. It should be brought to an even standard regardless of whether we are internal promotions or external hires

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
this is a not important question
Review from Sales Dept
I think its too late to advise
As we grow we need to hire well and fire early. Some people are just not productive or are busy without end results. Pipeline to closure ratio's are not measured and some people survive simply based on "pipeline" that is created
Review from Sales Dept
More open communications.

The interview process is not standardized and is slow. We can't hire top talent without a consistent benchmark. Plus the slow and confusing process deters lots of potential candidates.
