re: Questions for people in sales

How stressful is your job? - Depends on the day/time of year.

How many years did it take to start earning six figs? 7 years

How many hours do you work on average per week? 40 plus or minus 10

Does your job often cut into personal/family time? The nature of the beast is getting a few outside of business hours calls/requests, previous role this was constant... current role say 3 nights a week for an hour or two at a time.

Are you “happy” overall with your job? It's ok, better then sitting at a desk, better then working on a jobsite in the elements.

Any suggestion on what sort of company/role to look for for someone looking to start a career in sales? find a product and industry you are passionate about, decide if you want to be inside or outside sales...Also be willing to learn a lot very quickly. Live and Die by your network.
