The take (our opinion) Pay transparency is the best thing that happened to reps Posted ranges mean you walk into the first call already knowing the band. Use it. Anchor at the top of the posted range, not the middle, and make them tell you why you're not worth it. The range is the floor of the conversation, not the ceiling.
Quick tip Ask whether the posted range is base or OTE. Plenty of postings don't say, and the difference can be six figures.
