Nothing much just Job security and Bosch brand name. Bosch office Building which you can showoff to your friends.
This review is specifically for SAP consultants(functional and technical) and also from internal experience received from many SAP colleagues working in different external customer support projects. BGSW is a purely Indian service based organization, please don't get into trap of Bosch Brand name and their products. BGSW is a service provider to external customers like other service companies. No transparency on any policy even HR don't have clarity on their policies. Very dull and few projects in SAP (mostly SAP ECC AMS support projects and some implementation project with partnership and also most clients are Japanese, Indian and some are Saudi Arabian, which sucks your work life balance) Bosch recruiters are using the brand name of Bosch and deploying on external customer support project (Non Bosch projects) . They do have contracts with customers because of which you cannot take benefit of Bosch employee welfare policies like leaves, flexible work timing, even you have to work for festival holidays and Govt national mandatory holidays, Bosch is remain as just for name. There is no proper onshore and offshore working model in Bosch external customer support projects. Some projects you have to work for 6 days a week, without comp off. They are not paying any shift allowance because of low budget. In General Bosch employee policies are same or lower as compared to other Indian IT service companies. You can see lowest medical insurance in Bosch comparing to other IT service companies. Don't believe on commitments and assurance provided from Group manager during interview, they will tell you about SAP newest product, IoT, S/4 HANA biggest migration program in Bosch etc., but believe me all are fake promises, they are telling this from last 2-3 years. There is no guarantee that they will deploy you into that program because all old employees already occupied the positions also that one is separate entity now. Bosch is mostly hiring for external customer SAP support project, in some roles you have to work as third party resource as well. Bosch deploy you to other IT service company. Technical Consultants be ready to work on multiple projects at a time because of resource crunch. You can easily feels the monopoly/favoritism of south region peoples (90% strength), all old employees are transferred to Bosch internal projects in which good WLB and professional growth as compared to External Customer Support projects. BGSW is divided into two entities/segments internally -one segment is for Bosch internal projects and other is external customer support (Non Bosch). Be careful while choosing BGSW over other IT service companies. Because now a days they are mostly hiring for external customer support projects because of high attrition rate in that segment in BGSW. Also please check SAP peoples reviews before joining, instead of believing on old ratings available in different portals. Many peoples are getting into trap because of the old reviews provided by different department peoples. SAP people be careful. Do not keep hope on Administration, HR and Finance department support, you can not expect any response from them before 15-20 days even you raise official service ticket. Here ignoring emails is very common. They will simply ignore your emails, even you will not get any acknowledgment for your queries. You need to chase them for a single small support. HR Retention policy is so poor, no exit interviews from HR to get reviews from employee leaving....Read More

Bosch as a company is great, data annotation department is more biased and there is no value for the associates who relocate from other states to core location.
Technical leads assume themselves as project managers. Project managers are completely dependent on tech leads. Managers are puppet and more biased to seniors in the team.

No hike. 4 days office compulsory. No promotion no bonus. But so many rules and regulations. Always comes with new rules for not growing the associates.

Work life balance depends on team. Food.
HR policies in India are worst with least benefits and hikes. Learning on job is close to nothing. Extremely slow career growth with peanut hikes. Obsolete tech stack in majority projects. Extreme micro management at org level especially in India. Roles are not what they promise initially during interview. Bad project level decisions. The once glorified job security is now a myth. Your resume will die with 3 months notice. It has become just another service company that advertises itself as product company. It's essentially a unit of hardware company that is trying to become a 'cool' software company that simply isn't working out. Strict office timings. Flexibility lost post pandemic....Read More

The work culture , work life balance and flexible timings along with the food. They give us breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner as well.
The hikes are really really less and its difficult for freshers especially as the hikes are lesser than the inflation precentage.

Good thing about Bosch is their work life balance and cafeteria facilities.

The salary hike is not great. If project doesnt do good the employees get affected even after putting so much hard work.

Bosch is a very good company, for technical development and opportunity to explore new technologies. Work Life Balance was there.I liked the Bosch culture throughout the year. The associate was the wealth of the company and policy led by Great Bosch was the foundation on which the company is built .
I could see there is a culture shift compare to earlier in India location. Sometimes growth depends on the team you are working with. Expecting more dedicated and motivating leaders who can uplift the associate.

They provide breakfast, lunch and snacks - fixed menu, but free. Depends on team to team - If you get a good team, the work life becomes tolerable.
The company culture is deteriorating every year. Company is moving to give days work from office culture, the food options are reducing, salary hikes are unsatisfactory.

When I joined bosch it was all about innovation, managers were not technically challanged.eveyday we were creating something new. Now I'm bgsw they have no clue which technology to use where, they have learnt two word 'genAI' and 'agentic ai or ai agent' .. even they have only bookish idea. Work culture became so toxic, it became worse that service level companies. I used to a proud to take bosch's name with me. Now I feel cringe....Read More
1. If u are having health issues or ur children having health issues or ur parents, if u think u can stay back home with them and continue ur work to help your team, forget about it. HR will take you to apply for a leave 2. They are such an hypocrite that they will send mail about work-life balance and mental health, but don't understand that pushing the Bengaluru traffic and coming to office waste so much of energy that people get frustrated. Not sure who is taking this critical decision. 3. Soon they will create a innovation less zombie army. They will come stay in office for 6 hours and just poof ..go back home .. after pushing 2 hrs of traffic what do think they will innovate. 4. "O it became habit of people to work from home after Covid" .yes people lost money, people lost their own. People lost their mental and financial balance during Covid .. family was the only thing they lived for ... Yest bosch never gave a better salary hike to recover any of it ...let they work from home for 2 days .. keep it 4 hrs for office presence for the rest. So they can breath, play and be happy with their family, friends and room mate....Read More

There is nothing pros of this company. Specially if you are working in Mobility service team. If you are fresher, you will have a good time but if you are a mid level experience guy then it's a next hell for you. Your ideas will be suppressed, you will be humiliated, your efforts will go unnoticed. If project succeeded, then credit will be shared by Program Manager and architects and if Anything fails, it's completely developers failure. They loads you with unrealistic targets and if cross functional team support is required, they will say we hired you as a individual contributor and blame you at each step....Read More
No project clarity No working or coding guidelines They don't know how to mitigate the issue if any problem comes. They just blame the developer. No work satisfaction, they just give best rating to those who puts yes with manager's yes. No justification of what exactly is the root cause. And finally there is a worst HR. HR will always listens to manager and will never understands situation of an employee....Read More

So far free food is being provided. Work life balance is more pivoted towards life only.
Career growth is poor, nothing to speak about projects. Skill development is a lag, very reactive organisation at every level.
