Business outlook
Pros
Until recently, working there was second only to working for the government in terms of being fire-proof (not including mfr. or IT). If you have few skills, you have a chance of being given the opportunity to learn. Each group has it's own culture. They will educate you, train you.
Cons
The culture in the division I was in (may not be a typical experience) was not very professional. Being moved up based on merit was practically non-existent. It was commonplace to grant manager and director level positions to people with no experience in the discipline. It was a highly politicized environment.
