Pros

Culture, freedom of making decisions & trust. New set up in Penang provides lots of opportunity. Key management listens to employees. Good place to work.

Cons

Private company, at time too secretive. Not much experience as global company. Still very FMH centric. Quite control freak. Not much freedom given to the site.

Pros

The people I work with are great, the products are generally well perceived, and generally people are well treated. Bose, being a privately held company, has been fairly stable

Cons

The upper management at Bose makes a real effort to walk the talk of respect and fairness. Unfortunately, not all middle management takes that to heart. There is more political intrigue and nepotisim then there should be, or needs to be. There is a management practice duJour mentality that permeates this company. If six sigma is good, seven should be better. I don't know, maybe that's in every company
