Pros

Bose has great benefits and a good culture.

Cons

Since Dr. Bose left, a new, strong leader has not emerged. They have numerous, big problems and need strong leadership that gets the buy in from the rest of the company. Closing divisions may be necessary, but a real vision is also needed to inspire the rank and file.

Pros

There are pockets of groups that still treat employees with respect and value their contributions.

Cons

Executive team is growing as the employee base is shrinking - voluntary early retirements and layoffs. Also they are pushing attrition by forcing unwanted back to work. They cite employee feedback, however they are only sharing the data that suits their argument and position.

Pros

Benefits, Vacation, Tuition reimbursement, Gym membership reimbursement

Cons

There have been a constant amount of changes with middle and upper management, and it is ruining the company. Middle management (District Managers) are slammed and have no time to help their store managers develop and grow. I know of numerous store managers that have left simply because they were going absolutely no where and were getting almost no feedback. One of the worst mistakes this company made was off-shoring our call center and technical support to another country. Now they are laying off upper managers and moving their jobs to other countries.
