Pros

fabulous training program - world renowned. Opportunity to work in different states and countries. Exposure to latest in training ideas.

Cons

upward promotions depend on continued mobilty and travel. With kids this becomes almost impossible unless one spouse becomes a house parent. Global businesses mean being available 24/7 - never feel you able to truly be on vacation.
