Bose became a very depressing place. It's unbearable to be in any Bose Building these days. The memories of how it used to be in past; that’s all that is left when you are inside R&D. I am sure there are more layoffs coming and a lot of people will be leaving very soon on their own. Sadly, it is the “end of life” for Bose. Good things also end!
@7aqk+1geKKCma said it perfectly.
Observing this from the outside I can't help but see parallels with Kodak a decade ago. It's like the crushing end of a game of Monopoly: you know you can't win but the rules are that you have to lose big. Rather sad.
Anissa,
Everything you’re reading in this thread is the truth. The trauma, the overworked folks who remain, the endless cycle of layoff-pep talk-reorg-building closures-cancelled products……
Sincerely,
A loyal employee who need his head examined
