Pros

People are nice and the culture has a good family style atmosphere. Headquarters is a nice building with a great view. Their Stow location is great all around building and location. Many employees work there for a long time. Some even work their way up from custodian to design engineer. I know it sounds odd, but I met the guy myself. Many interesting stories on the history of Bose abound. Dr. Bose is nice and personable and even holds talks. If you are an audio engineer you will like Bose.

Cons

Super heavily political; tons of nepotism; favorites; adverse to all change even if it improves profit or efficiency; low pay with little respect; unless you are in engineering development the company does not care about you at all.
