Pros

Dolby is a good place to work, but so good for advancement. - Most employees have the option to work a 9/80 schedule, giving you every other friday off. They also have flex hours and allowing working from home - depending on your job assignment, of course.

Cons

There is definitely a segregation between the management levels. There's workers and some mid level management, but way too many VPs, they have VPs reporting to VPs and the salaries are significantly different between the levels. Management likes to hire talented, knowledgeable people, but then don't listen to them.
