I’d say skip I got an offer from GCP and turned it down believe it or not IBM plays their sales people more than google.

Oh really? What was the delta between the offers?

IBM 838:& Apr 23, 2019

I wasn’t comparing offerings. But the difference between GCP and my current position was about 18% reason being GCP comp plans are very low leverage.

SADA Systems, man I tried getting into your company, the guy said no basically. Was kinda bummed. 3 YoE, aerospace engineer

SADA Systems cloudsales OP Apr 24, 2019

Got it. Interesting, who did your interview with/dept?

Northrop Grumman HowCouldYu Apr 24, 2019

I don’t wanna throw out names here but the SADA in North Hollywood. The recruiter was a chill dude, but just didn’t feel I could come on board because no CS degree (I just passed GCP Architect exam). I think maybe if I had a referral I’d be better off? Who knows

Any suggestions on where I should interview with G Suite and a lot of SaaS licensing and services selling experience?

Northrop Grumman HowCouldYu Apr 24, 2019

Microsoft, hate to say. But sounds like they’re the ones actually making money. GCP is lower the bar to entry because they aren’t making enough money

SADA Systems cloudsales OP Apr 24, 2019

Yeah, hate that culture but that seems to be the common thread. Google can’t get away from making everything free, hard to make great money off of free of heavy discounts

OP is right.. that's how they try to sell G Suite against M365, give it away for years so companies might switch to try and save $. But companies still want Office, Windows and need to pay for plugins for the gaps to make things work so hard to make financial savings or sales quota in that model. Is KT making any change in G Suite or just focused on GCP?
