This thread is talking a lot about the impact of branding, money, reputation, history of the sponsor/potential sponsor. It is also good to think about what the FIRST team(s) and the sponsor(s) can achieve working together.
And are there any negative consequances in having an x-Firster working as a Mecahnical Engineer for Marlboro of Smirnoff? On he contrary, having a Firster there might bring some sort of a change to the companies face, but even if that does not happen, First has produced an Engineer out of this partnership, which is what FIRST is all about, isn't it?
