Pros

Decent work/ company culture. Decent pay and benefits. Was a wonderful and inspiratonal place while Dr. Bose was alive.

Cons

Recently management has made some very questionable business decisions. The company's focus now seems to be straying away from caring about a great product for the customer and taking care of employees, to focusing on the bottom line. This was once a great American company with values, but recently, much of the talent has been outsourced for cost saving reasons. Communication has been poor, and morale is extremely low in most departments.

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)
