Cons
You have to pay your dues here if you want to be promoted to the home office in Columbus. Therefore it is not always about your capability, but sometime more about tenure. If you want to move up, I would suggest that you get a lot of exposure to anyone and everyone in Columbus. Watch out for the size of the territory. Some territories involve extensive travel which are not conducive to family life.
