MBB vs. Technical Sales

Need help evaluating two offers and getting polling thoughts:


1.  MBB Associate:  RTS/Transformation Practice, 175k base + 15% bonus

Pros: Increase breadth of industry knowledge, path to partnership, prestige/better brand name

Cons:  More junior role, worse WLB, exit opps limited to restructuring type roles


2.  Director:  Enterprise Sales for major SaaS player, 175k base + 100% bonus (OTE), up to 300% bonus based on quota (max TC 700k)

Pros:  Managing team, partial P&L responsibility for my vertical, hone in on 'sales' and interpersonal skills, exit to other big tech/startups

Cons:  Higher risk of layoff for not meeting quota, lesser known company, exit opps limited to tech


Current experience in Corporate Finance/Strategy with deep industry supply chain knowledge.  Looking to make GM role as end goal, managing large P&L. 

(Female in late 20s, if that helps)
