Hello, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are glad to hear that you enjoy the benefits at Bosch. Regardless, we want you to know that we take seriously your comments. At Bosch we do consider pay and compensation as one but not the only factor for sustaining a good experience for the associates – work environment, learning, leadership are the important other aspects. Therefore, it is our priority to create a work environment in which our associates feel motivated and supported in doing their work. For this purpose, our managers are trained to provide their associates with the best possible support. We are sorry that you perceived this differently in your case. To be able to understand your experience better, we would very much appreciate it, if you would contact your former HR Business Partner, to let them know more about your situation. Your feedback helps to realize a positive change. Thank you! Your Bosch Career Team

Pros

Good Facilities, Free tea and coffee onsite, Hybrid working - working from home is much better than the office.

Cons

Lacks any development opportunities, there are none in place at all. Minimum contact with TL's. Favouritism within teams creates low morale, it's not hidden either so it's much better to WFH. Anyone with boundaries or a need to speak up won't do well here, the treatment of staff isn't good.

Pros

Chill and friendly team members with diverse backgrounds Fully flexible working arrangements

Cons

You will be offered a contract from external third party for a permanent full time Bosch employee position, therefore you are not a Bosch employee. This won't matter for your team or work arrangements, but the management will see you as contractor! You won't learn much for your career
