Pffffffft I am resisting my natural tendency to get very angry at reading this. Sales is a profession where the top 1% of earners are like lottery winners and the bottom 99% of earners are like customer service.

In software engineering, the gains are much more equally distributed and the contribution to society is more valuable.

Keep in mind that sales engineers usually have a good sized base salary, unlike pure sales people. With that comes a smaller commission than sales people.

As for contribution to society, I don't agree. The big winners is software make some pretty toxic stuff.
