Great descriptions - at Microsoft we use both of these models. The pros and cons aren't exactly the same, but very close.

One thing I would add is that another clue to which model to use is to use whatever model the person at the top of the org chart is most comfortable and experienced with. A good leader at the top knows the pros and cons of their org structure, and knows how to mitigate the cons and take advantage of the pros (leadership preference is the most likely reason why we have both models in place).
