Top Heavy with Incompetence

Business Outlook

Pros

Most employees really give their all.

Cons

The Rexroth division of Bosch is extremely top heavy. More managers then workers. If u want advancement you must work in a Bosch plant in another country for 3yrs. Therefore they import managers whose main goal is to create perceptions of achievements to use as stepping stones to management positions. In most cases these are proven to be bad business decisions and then leave to get their promotion.
