Submit a Review"I enjoy people. I really like doing negotiations as a commodity manager. The only downside was when I had to travel long periods of time away from family. It was not very frequent. I enjoy travelling, but when tough times comes, I had to be on the plane often. This is somewhat hard on the family."
