Pros

- Pretty good pay and benefits - 50% discount on products - Fun trips to headquarters

Cons

- Heavy emphasis and pressure on sales teams (which I get), but this trickled down to pressure on lower level teams and brought un-needed stress in my opinion - The decision to focus on less products and less customers and focusing on best products and customers led to losing a ton of money (obviously) which lead to layoffs...not sure if it will pay off - Didn't recover production slow downs from Covid, didn't seem to be improving - Worked lots of nights and some weekends to make minor changes to make people happy - I think the quality of the product for the price was not great. The brand name makes the products more expensive, not the quality. So many technical issues and performance of products not much better than competitors even though everyone there thinks Bose is the best...it's really not.
