Business outlook
Pros
Bose has a strong concentration of very smart, motivated engineers, and there is tremendous support for professional development within the company. It is very satisfying to work on consumer products that people love. Bose has a culture of strong shared values that runs very deep, and although sometimes it seems like people are "drinking the kool-aid", the values are actually genuine at the highest levels of management. In most of the company, work/life balance is valued and supported (this is not true in the automotive division).
Cons
The lack of adequate parking is a surprisingly big problem. Leadership in new product planning is very weak. The cafeteria is terrible.
