I had a scheduled phone screen with Brightwheel. Early on, the recruiter shared compensation details. The pay is 45k base // 99k OTE, which I found surprisingly low for the required experience and responsibilities. The recruiter explained that leadership reduced the base salary to encourage quota attainment. This felt like a major red flag, and I immediately declined the offer. While the product seems good, the compensation and AE expectations are problematic for attracting talent.

I was super excited to hear back from the recruiter the day after applying, especially in this tough job market. He was really helpful and knew his stuff, and was upfront about the salary right away. We talked, and he learned more about me and told me more about the company. He was cool about bringing up the salary early to make sure we were on the same page, but it turned out it wasn't a good fit because the base pay was way lower than I expected.
