🚩 Heads Up

  • Role title 'AE Manager' but description says 'Enterprise AE Manager' and team includes upper mid-market, indicating possible scope creep.
  • Experience requirement of 5-10 years SaaS sales but only 1+ years management, which may lead to internal friction if managing more experienced reps.
  • Mentions 'monthly or quarterly quota' environment but doesn't specify which, potentially indicating inconsistent expectations.
