Worst company to work for, it will ruin your career. its just like other IT company or worse
Pros
Little flexibility in work time. It is somewhat OK for woman employee, Who are not very ambitious and want a better work life balance.
Cons
All these are my personal view , and what i feel after working of almost 4 years. If you are not active and little complacent to jump other company, your career is ruined. My best advice is to start searching for new job as soon you join company. Even if you get good starting salary, it will be balanced out in few years by giving some "junk" hike. There is no correlation between performance and hike. Appraisal is only for bonus amount. your hike is related to some nuisance parameters that only god knows.Sorry one i know ,"visibility ". Moreover on asking topic of salary Group managers/DHs will come with jokes like "Bell curves" Worst office politics, No sync between BOSCH Germany and RBEI. Group managers and Department heads(MOSTLY NOT BILLED) are exploiting young engineers. They make big salary for themselves out of work done by engineers of 1-7 years experience. Before 2007 all employee used to get onsite for minimum of 6 months. Recently , all new onsite opportunities are eaten up by new DH and GM themselves. First they don't treat employee so well, after giving very less salary . They want to eat up money of income tax refunds of onsite employee too. By citing name of BOSCH , they mislead with big promise in college interviews.Mostly they will show work done by other department as exciting scenario. But after joining you will be thrown to junk teams. Its most not so innovative company ( number of patents always doesn't mean innovation). If you work here long , your career will be dead under nonsense RBEI process and tools. which don't have an iota of market value. Only few teams have good work which has market demand.
