 I'm in a position at work where I'm going to be inheriting an IT
 infrastructure for a group of 300 employees in 10 offices. Looking at
 what I'm inheriting, I'm finding more and more offices running on cable
 connections - typically 300/20 connections.

 This. Will. Not. Do. Especially when I'm running an SDWAN over these
 links and trying to synchronize files - and I'm going into the office
 sometimes with the express need of uploading ISOs and huge files to
 other sites!

 I think 600/600 is a nice starting point.

 At home, I'm still stuck on cable and really need to bite the bullet
 and go fiber. I'd love to back up 3TB of data on my NAS to the cloud,
 but at 600/20 with bandwidth caps, I'd be insane to do so.

 Once I go fiber, maybe I'll make use of my teamed 1GB ethernet links.   :)
