I think I might enjoy working in a classical functional organization. I like working in research/engineering and would prefer not to be bothered with the marketing, manufacturing, or accounting aspects of the project; in a functional organization each department works separate of the other. I would not want my unfamiliarity of marketing to slow down the progress of the project. Also, if I were to specialize in conducting experimental designs, then, over time, I would become an expert whereby subsequent projects would benefit from my expertise. I understand that the disadvantage of a functional organization is lack of teamwork among departments, however maybe with a strong Project Manager this lack could be alleviated.
