Pros

Lots of people with great experience to learn from and tons of (utterly unrealized) potential for exciting development. Given the talen level of the staff DTS could easily have continued to be an industry leader if project management could be restructured.

Cons

The core business of DTS is audio codecs and due to the decrease of disk sales and increased online delivery the company has an ongoing identity crisis, which recently had upper management cash-out in a sell-off to Tessera/Xperi. The company itself has in the past tried to diversify into "audio solutions" with mixed success. All of this, along with a culture in which every other person is a "VP" of something and trying hard to hold on to their political status makes the atmosphere aggressive and ignorant at the same time. Over the past years there has been multiple rounds of layoffs creating a sense of doom among much of the staff.
