Good Company Overall

Pros

Talented, creative staff and exciting, often disruptive products. Good benefits and working environment. Strong marketing budgets and excellent brand awareness

Cons

Dolby had a reputation for taking care of their staff, but now they are just another company. This is more a reflection of the current market vs. the standards Dolby once set. Blanket global decisions - due to being mainly managed centrally from San Fran, making the business culturally insensitive.
