It depends on how much your network is going to change. Do people change departments but sit at the same desk? Is there a VLAN for things other than PCs (IP Phones, security cameras, wireless access points) that are going to plug into the same switches? As a convienience thing, VTP on the distribution/access layers is very handy. I do it here - the switches in our patch panel room not only run desktop PCs, but also wireless APs and front desk demo machines, all in their own VLANs.
