High tech with a human touch

Our founder, Ray Dolby, was more than a brilliant scientist and inventor. He valued a work environment that fostered both individual creativity and teamwork, intellectual curiosity and practical problem-solving. He believed in forward-thinking, mutual respect, and true work-life balance.

Even as we've become a global company, Dolby Laboratories continues to reflect Ray Dolby's values. Here, science meets art. And high tech goes far beyond computer code.

Flex Work @ Dolby

Flex Work @Dolby is our way of being intentional about how we do our best work.

We believe in enabling working remotely, while still harnessing the magic of coming together in-person for collaboration, connection, and community. When COVID subsides, we expect most employees will be in the office more than zero days a week and less than five days a week. Because the future can be uncertain, we encourage our employees to experiment, iterate, and adapt Flex Work to enable their work and needs.

You won’t find an official Flex Work policy at Dolby. Instead, we use our five Flex Work Principles to guide each of our employees and their teams through engage in this journey.

  • One Dolby: We will make decisions that are in best interest of the team, and that will allow us to deliver the most value to each other and Dolby. 
  • Trust: We trust and empower each other as the experts for how to do our best work. 
  • Connection: We believe that authentic connection takes intention and we will continue to experiment with the most effective ways to connect - whether that be virtual or being in an office. 
  • Flexibility: Finding your flex balance will be about setting boundaries while being flexible about flexibility as our work ebbs and flows.
  • Belonging: As a community, we honor our differences and seek to harness these to enable the best work to happen.

In the U.S., all persons who are utilizing Dolby facilities, travelling or meeting with customers on behalf of Dolby, or participating in Dolby sponsored activities are required to submit proof of full vaccination or apply for an accommodation or exception to participate in a weekly testing regiment.
