Bose
What's the Work-Life Balance Like at Bose?
Frequently Asked Questions
We operate on a hybrid work model; for employees located near our offices, there are dedicated core weekdays when they are expected to be in the office. We offer competitive time off, including PTO and an office closure between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Employees also receive up to three paid volunteer days each year for community involvement.
The Wellbeing@Bose Hub, powered by PersonifyHealth, offers a tailored approach to employee wellness. This platform enables individuals to set personal goals and track their progress across five key areas: Emotional Wellbeing, Energy, Focus, Drive, and Health Solutions. Employees are encouraged to participate in healthy activities—such as joining wellness challenges, logging steps, and setting wellbeing objectives—and can earn points for their efforts. As milestones are reached, these points are converted to rewards.
