Pros

Employee discount, many good and talented people.

Cons

Too many and too frequent re-orgs and out-sourcings. Spend lots of money in new areas without revenue, but stopped investing in some audio products. The sleepbud has to be recalled due to defects. That's not the Bose way. Some products were canceled in the middle of development. 4 leardership changes in the past 4 years and many layoffs even the economy is pretty good. Another round of layoff is on the way. Every leader propose different slogans but little actions. No more Q&A during tall hall meeting. Leaders are not listening to employees. Too many favoritism in management. It is very chaotic.
