Svantaggi
-Gum is a challenging category that has been declining for several years, so can create interesting conversations with customers -Visibility to other Mars career opportunities is low right now (it's hard to tell if something would be a lateral, a promotion, etc) but they are working to correct this in 2015 -It can be hard to stay connected to headquarters if you are at a remote site, and I understand it is hard to promote or change functions if you start in the field (Territory Sales Manager)
