Pros

Loved the product and enjoyed my time with Bose. I worked around many smart and dedicated professionals who respected the brand and reputation of the company. Hard work yielded long term payoff through promotions and bonus. I have many people i still keep in contact with and enjoyed my time with Bose.

Cons

On the flip side there were also a few individuals I avoided. But to say workplace politics and social-clicks do not exist in any other company would be untrue. As others have mentioned about recent changes in the company direction... I would agree.

Pros

I worked out of a Factory Store inside a mall, which meant there was always someone to talk to or something to do. They worked well with my school hours as they adjusted which each semester. It was hourly based so you didn't have employees stabbing each other in the back for a sale.

Cons

Raises were a joke, I was consistently the top seller outside of management yet several times I got raises of 20-45 cents. Totally pointless. The scripts you had to memories for the "Show" were incredibly long and did not come out conversationally at all, however management always said you were supposed to sound conversational, but were not allowed to differ from the script...at all! They would drill you on these, and even eves drop right behind your demo, making it awkward for all involved.
