      Great company! (but not for introverts!)

      Pros

      Great culture, feels startup-like but at scale. A company that really believes in its core principles (which are on display everywhere, in case you forget them!). And, when I had to leave (for reasons that had nothing to do with the company), Atlassian were extremely helpful and understanding. If I get the chance to work here again, I'll take it!

      Cons

      Definitely more for extroverts than introverts! If you want to just sit in a corner and do whatever you do, don't work here. Also, company has a great work-life balance, for most employees - but expect the borders between work & life to blur.

      We appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback and we’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience with Atlassian. We’ve heard there can be some aspects of our culture that make it difficult for introverts and this is something we’re working to be more thoughtful about as our culture evolves. As a company, we’re dedicated to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for everyone, and that means creating the culture and environments where introverts can thrive. Some of the things that we’ve implemented to move the needle forward on this are prioritizing the building of “quiet spaces” within our global offices, incorporating direct guidance for managers on introvert-friendly meeting practices (sending out meeting agendas in advance, etc.), and integrating more intentional ways that folks are rewarded for their contributions to teams that can show up in a variety of ways. ~Atlassian People team

      The art of chicanery

      Pros

      Interesting outlook, keeps growing fast regardless the actual quality of the inside.

      Cons

      In 10 years of my career as a software engineer this is the first company I consider a fraud. Every aspect of the management I have observed at every point when I worked here yielded the same results. Gotta give them credit though for the good masquerade they put up. If you pay attention you will see a most people talk a lot, yet no effort spent and nothing got done after a while. I felt funny any time anyone says they'd fix/contribute something in some public lib that they are using. Given they do not know how it works, I highly doubt they even know basic programming, I did take a leap of faith, put out my best efforts while wait and watch though. Drawing into this kind of discussions to me is a kind of insulting, I am a developer, not a cheap actor. Same behavior on PM or higher level of management, they act like they care, yet put up no effort, and of course no result after years. Changes in middle management are also conveniently happens. Gossiping seems to be the area high paid people were focusing on while i was there.

      Pros

      Awesome company where values are really embraced every day. Teams are really empowered to do the best work of their lives. Love the ship it days.

      Cons

      The company is challenged with retaining the company values and culture as they bring on new senior leaders.
