Safe jobs at a globally operating technology company

Pros

Lots of opportunities and they have locations literally everywhere around the globe. Especially good medical insurance. Vacation is based on seniority. Plus everybody gets 5 personal days and there are about 12 company closing days each year in the U.S. World wide Bosch internal Social Network which can be used to discuss and share knowledge amongst field experts globally. Strong German Engineering spirit.

Cons

This is also the greatest weakness, with much more risk avoidance than risk taking. The company is on its way to become more agile but it's a long way for a traditional more than 125 year old company with approximately 400.000 people.
