Lots of good

Pros

Lots of options to get international experience or to change divisions. Modern offices encourage collaboration. Company tries to do the right things for the employees, for the most part. Great people and motivated. Also focus on environment and corporate responsibility is more than just words.

Cons

management strategies seem inconsistent, at least in my area. Germany drives all decisions. Advancement only possible if you're a conformist. Also, we run lean, which is fine, but then the expectations need to align to that (ie don't expect my team of 9 to accomplish what really needs a team of 15).

We understand - Bosch has been around for more than 130 years and, as with any large company, adapting to a new mindset is definitely a challenge! We embrace the value that the diversity of our associates offers and that’s one of the reasons your feedback is so important to us. Thank you for sharing! — Your Bosch Team

Pros

Do some interesting projects. The working environment is relaxing. Team is small so you can talk to anyone in the team directly.

Cons

Normally no return offer. So after three months internship, you need to find a job again.

Bosch is a large company with roughly 402,000 associates in around 60 countries and this definitely comes with a lot of challenges, as you mentioned. Therefore, your feedback is really important so we can keep moving forward. Thanks a lot for leaving us a review! — Your Bosch Team
