If you want to change jobs, there are so many divisions that no matter what you want to do, there is a place for you. You do not need to look outside the company, as each division has its own management style and culture that is completely unique. Benefits are great. Even the layoff packages are generous.

Do not expect a PhD to automatically be a great manager. In fact, I would argue that they do not intend to educate themselves about management, or else that would have received their MBA. If you want a good manager, look at MBAs!
