Is it sales in general or the process of which you are selling is the problem? I saw another member ask if it was more transactional. I have been in software sales 7 years now. First 6 years selling to health systems and my new job for a year now selling to enterprise level companies. While sales is certainly a roller coaster of emotions and ultimately high risk high reward, it is important to look at the sales process to make sure it is a fit for you. For me, I couldn’t enjoy a transactional system. I enjoy a consultative/educational approach and stay with the customer post sale. Maybe something to consider in your new job search.

It can be frustrating because in a very large company it can be difficult to be the squeaky wheel. You have to also understand the office politics and dynamics in order to serve your customers well.
