Glengarry super fan Austen Trimble is out as Eagle Eye VP of Sales. He is now an account executive at Salesforce while Eagle Eye is starting a search for a new VP of Sales, the company confirmed to IPVM.

Trimble was at Eagle Eye for over 4 years. We commented a few times on his approach including No Industry Experience, Like Glengarry Glen Ross, Want To Pretend To Be An Expert? Join Eagle Eye! and Eagle Eye VP Of Sales: "There Are No Asterisks In Life. Only Scoreboards" He was like Verkada... before Verkada.

Going from a startup VP to an account exec at a huge company is atypical but Salesforce can pay very well.

New VP of Sales

It's an attractive job as Eagle Eye is well funded in a key growth segment of the industry - VSaaS (see our Eagle Eye test report and our VSaaS company comparison). They are looking for an experienced industry person so if you are interested and qualified, you should reach out to them.

In a span of 2 weeks, suddenly there are some interesting openings. First the Pelco CEO spot and now Eagle Eye VP of Sales.

Is IPVM finally opening that job board request?

Lol, getting closer I suppose...

We have not made any direct progress on doing a job board but we are clearly bigger than a year ago so we are approaching a point where we likely have the resources to handle this along with other things we want to do.

Eagle Eye's President is evidently not a Glengarry Glenross fan:
