RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Bose full-time
Pros
This is an organization full of people with great values who really care about what they do and how the products the organization delivers can make a difference in peoples lives. Strong values-based culture. Excellent learning and development opportunities. Far from a perfect organization, yet leadership owns up to opportunities escalated from employees and do their best to fix issues.
Cons
Communication is often a challenge and can be a bit muddled. Many different channels and vehicles to get important updates. Senior management seems to be working on this, though.

Pros
All the toys you'd want to use in getting the best results. Great environment and easy access to smart people who are willing to help you with difficult problems.
Cons
High pressure in product development. This is a natural result of the schedule driven nature. May not get kudos for your inventions if you're not an MIT graduate.
Advice to Management
Give better benefits to those who get patents.
