Pros

Strong brand. Innovative, good culture, and very smart people. Some of the best coworkers I've ever had. Department manager is great. Work-Life balance.

Cons

Upper Management is clueless with the work being done at a lower level. Recent round of layoffs introduces many gaps in the company that hasn't been filled. Company shifted focus drastically and harshly, which results in broken processes and inefficiencies. The "new Bose" does not follow the values that the company was founded on. Bose is becoming like any other average company to work for.. with increased outsourcing of jobs and upper management that does that understand the business or people. As always, Bose has also been struggling to keep up in a fast changing industry and evolve their technology.

Pros

Major transformation in progress. New Senior Leadership team making all the right moves. Transparent executive communications to employees. Shedding the old obsolete ways while keeping the Bose Essence

Cons

Lots of change all at once (but it is communicated - it is not a surprise)
