      Wonderful engineers/co-workers, but upper management is throwing darts w/ minimal strategy.

      Pros

      * The engineers that work there are wonderful, smart, talented, passionate, and driven. * Get every other Friday off. * Better paying than most companies (but at what cost?) * Very encouraging of a healthy working environment (debatably).

      Cons

      * The engineers are under-appreciated/not well known or well utilized by upper management. * There are 2-5 managers for every engineer, rather than the other way around. * Upper management continues to pinch pennies by stretching engineering resources as thinly as possible.

      Pros

      Every other Friday off and benefits

      Cons

      This reflects only my experience in the Sales and Marketing organization - poor middle/upper management and poor choices in consultants and outside agencies.

      No sense of design and no leadership in marketing.

      Pros

      Every other Friday off, great benefits, excellent bonus structure. Excellent Legal, Sales, and Engineering teams.

      Cons

      Creative and Marketing are a joke. dolby.com. No CMO = nobody managing inexperienced VPs. Tradeshows = marketing.
