Pros

9/80 which is great when you have kids.

Cons

Extremely slow decision making process. Dolby still depends on old school methodologies and software development process. Upper management is obsessed old school technology and have no idea what's happening in the industry. The research is primarily composed of people who have been here for 20+ years and have no idea what's going on in the industry.
