This company has the best culture I’ve ever been a part of. Success largely depends on your accounts—something well understood across the business. However, you are provided with all the tools and support needed to succeed.

How is the prime Strategic org? Specifically as it relates to Marketing Cloud / CDP / CC? Verticals: High Tech or Media & Comms with 2-4 accounts. Would you leave a FAANG cloud hyperscaler selling to a top 25 customer with guaranteed 90% OTE but limited upside to go to Salesforce for 30% more OTE?
