Pros

I worked at Dolby for 7 years ~Great benefits, 9/80 plan is incredible. Every other Friday off ~Casual company culture, not a total grind like other big firms. I enjoyed having a great work life balance.

Cons

~Seemingly consistent re-orgs and small rounds of layoffs. ~Slow moving. Slow to make decisions. ~Little to no growth opportunities ~Lack of diversity
