The Bosch Group in Hungary was found to be the most attractive workplace in the manufacturing category once again by a survey conducted by PwC Hungary. For the sixth time, the consulting company has examined the expectations of students, career starters, and already experienced employees, their perceptions of employer brands, and how they were influenced by the events of the past period and the changed working conditions. This year, twenty-six thousand people took part in the survey.
As in the past five years, Bosch won the 2022 Most Attractive Workplace Award in the manufacturing category. And on the overall list, it won a silver medal, moving up one place compared to last year's results. "We are very proud of the awards, thank you to everyone who supported us with their votes in the fierce competition this year. Such positive feedback always gives us strength for further work, as it shows that at Bosch we are on the right track in supporting our employees and cooperating with them," said András Somogyi, vice president of human resources of the Bosch Group in Hungary and the Adriatic region.
According to the survey, compared to previous years, the most important employee needs have changed significantly this year. Existential security became more important than work-life balance or social requirements. Employees increasingly expect their employers to provide this.
As a close strategic cooperation of eight independent companies, the Bosch Group is one of Hungary's largest foreign industrial employers, employing more than 17,000 employees. In the financial year 2021, it achieved total net sales of 1,711 billion forints. Hungarian Bosch companies focus on future-shaping areas such as electromobility, autonomous driving, artificial intelligence and Industry 4.0 – both in production and in research and development.
