Pros

A few good products. Bonuses even though the company wasnt making any money. Good work life balance. Really nice corporate offices

Cons

Nepotisim runs wild. Middle management is ineffective and many have been there for a long time. Home entertainment products are overpriced and dont meet market needs.

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)
