One thing people don’t realise until they move into a performance-based career is just how different the benefits can be. In many tech companies, the thinking is simple: If employees feel their best, they perform at their best. When your role directly impacts revenue, investing in your wellbeing isn’t seen as an expense… it’s seen as a business decision. That’s why you’ll often see benefits like: ✨ Wellness budgets (yes, some companies allow these to be used for things like nails, massages, gym memberships or self-care) 🏡 Remote and hybrid working 💻 Home office budgets 📚 Learning and development allowances 🏥 Private healthcare 🧠 Mental health and wellbeing support 📈 Clear progression opportunities 💰 Performance bonuses, commission and in some companies even equity If you’re wondering what the role actually involves… Most people start as an SDR (Sales Development Representative) or BDR (Business Development Representative). Your job is to identify businesses that could benefit from your company’s software, start conversations through calls, LinkedIn and email, understand whether they’re a good fit and book qualified meetings for the sales team. It’s one of the few careers where people regularly transition from retail, hospitality, beauty, recruitment, customer service, the NHS, teaching and many other backgrounds because companies care far more about your communication skills, resilience and willingness to learn than having a technical degree.
