I’m a sales at a french saas software company for the belgian market. After 2,5+y I’m thinking of making a change as my targets have always been overachieved and I’m currently 4th best sales in EU market (out of 30+ sales). Problem is I don’t feel the recognition (I think)I deserve. My variable is pretty high, but only reason being is bc I’m getting my OTE so I deserve it. As I started I could understand I had to prove myself, but now I think I should deserve a bit more. Also thinking about those US software companies looking for belgian sales, those numbers are crazy... I’m a bit lost and want to know what a good next step could be in my career.
