Overview
- The company announced the change on Thursday, October 22, 2026, creating legally separate subsidiaries for mobility, IT, internal services and real estate and moving about 62,500 employees into those new companies.
- Bosch says existing employment contracts, pay and working conditions will transfer unchanged to the new subsidiaries and that no further job cuts are planned as part of this reorganisation.
- The mobility division will remain the group's largest business, having generated roughly €55.8 billion or about 60 percent of Bosch’s 2025 revenue.
- CEO Christian Fischer said the change is designed to let units make faster decisions and open space for strategic partnerships to lift margins, and Bosch expects the restructuring to be complete by the end of 2027.
- The move responds to slower demand, tougher competition from global suppliers and geopolitical pressures that have already led Bosch to cut jobs and make acquisitions that raised revenue but reduced operating profit.
