Business Outlook
Pros
Lots of cross-division work if your manager will "take care" of you and find work for you when budget dries up. Lots of different gigs if you're willing to go off the typical career path. If you are young, cheap, flexible, and want to travel - there is a lot of opportunity, again, if your manager values you and moves you around with the work.
Cons
Newer generation of managers don't take care of their employees - you're just a number that sucks up their budget. After you've been there a while, getting the standard annual raise, you get too expensive and manager X decides to cut you early when budget dries up. Often each division works as its own small company, in a way, so employees don't end up in cross-company job openings.
