Why it matters: OTE tells you what you could earn. Attainment tells you how realistic it is.

Ask: “What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?”

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?

    Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

  3. 3.

    Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?

    A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.

  4. 4.

    Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?

    Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

  5. 5.

    What are the base and the OTE for this role?

    No point investing hours before you know the number.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

› When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

About RHONDOS RHONDOS is the recognized leader in SAP security and observability — trusted by Fortune 500 and Fortune 2000 enterprises globally to secure and observe their most mission-critical systems. Our PowerConnect solution delivers real-time threat detection, compliance automation, and deep operational visibility across SAP environments, on market-leading platforms including Splunk, Dynatrace, and Elastic. We maintain strategic partnerships with global systems integrators, ISVs, and VARs. We are a rapidly growing and profitable business with a lean, highly skilled team operating with a distributed team across the globe. We move fast, think strategically, and build things that last. The Opportunity We are hiring an Account Executive to join our EMEA go-to-market team as our first dedicated seller in the region. You will own the full sales cycle — prospecting, qualification, discovery, commercial negotiation, and close — for enterprise SAP customers and prospects, selling PowerConnect directly and through our partner ecosystem: Dynatrace, Splunk/Cisco, and the systems integrators that serve SAP landscapes. You will report to the Director of EMEA GTM and work closely with regional sales engineers to build pipeline, run disciplined sales cycles, and grow our most strategic accounts. This is an individual contributor role for an enterprise seller with experience navigating complex software deals, who is ready to own a number, sell alongside world-class partners, and help build the EMEA business. What You'll Do - Own and exceed an annual quota for new and expansion revenue across an assigned EMEA territory - Prospect, qualify, and close new enterprise logos through direct outreach and partner-sourced opportunities - Co-sell with Dynatrace, Splunk/Cisco, and systems integrator field teams — building joint account plans, aligning on deal strategy, and managing partner deal registration - Manage and grow strategic accounts in the installed base: own executive relationships, drive adoption and renewals, and identify expansion into new SAP systems, use cases, and platforms - Build and maintain a healthy pipeline at 3–4x coverage, keep HubSpot accurate, and deliver a reliable weekly forecast - Lead the full sales cycle from discovery through commercial negotiation and close, engaging sales engineering for technical validation and proofs of concept - Enable partner sellers on the RHONDOS value proposition, qualification criteria, and competitive positioning through regional enablement sessions and joint field activity - Navigate procurement, legal, and security review with enterprise buyers and partner contracting vehicles - Provide market, competitive, and customer feedback to Product and Marketing - Represent RHONDOS at regional SAP, observability, and partner events, conferences, and webinars - Travel across the region as required, approximately 30% This Role Is Not for Everyone If you need a brand name, a big surrounding sales organization, or heavy process, this probably isn't the right fit. If you want to own a territory and a number, learn from people who have done it, and grow commercially at the intersection of SAP and observability, we'd like to talk.
