Pros

Some very good, cooperative people - mostly those that had been there under the former management (pre-Kevin Yaemon)

Cons

Inability to trust management at most levels. Short-term, finance driven planning by the CEO - exactly the opposite of what Ray Dolby did to build their success.

Pros

There is no any good reason to work in Dolby La. Very bad company, Baddest Management, Baddest colleague, Baddest environment:

Cons

1. Engineer in Dolby Lab very busy in Meeting. from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and then they leave every rush to take Bart or Train to go home 2. Engineer in Dolby Lab tell new comer everything have to ask s'one will help and they don't want you to ask, very conflict. 3. As I know every Laptop in Dolby Lab has the 'Watching' software. They can know what you are doing in real time 4. Some Manager using Meter Watch to monitor what you are doing and how long you working 5. Teaching very poor and want you to finish project in next two hours 6. Don't go to Dolby Lab - worst Management team
