Colleagues are great but already burnt out. - Sales Executive Ebury Employee Review

You dont earn commission as a junior sales for a long period. Sold the dream in this respect. Entirely dependent on the markets you pitch. Many competitors offer some level of commission from the start as well as a higher basic salary. For the effort put in the rewards are paltry for the first few years. If your lucky enough to survive without burning out there is money to be made - only 1 in 100 ever make it however. Even then, the commission structure decreases after the first year for senior sales. Ends up being a perpetual cycle of cold calling which would drive most mad.
