Great company to work for

Pros

I found the people and the open culture to be the best part of the company. From onboarding to exiting, it was a really awesome experience. They'll do just about anything to make you feel comfortable and "ready for action".

Cons

In my very short period of time - there is a sense of entitlement among the younger staff. Atlassian provides food, drinks, icecreams etc - and I still heard people b**ching during lunch time. It's growing to fast that half the staff have only been at the company for less than a year - so the knowledge base has been diluted a bit. There is a huge amount of "cult" or culture - especially around work/life balance - but I did feel as if I was being monitored, and having a regular schedule of in/out was a no-no. So if you have a family, make sure you discuss the very real potential of spending a serious amount of time in the office with them.

Pros

Low pay, long hours, no talent retention, micro-management culture, lack of vision, cloak and dagger HR, unethical, fake, just to name a few of the pros.

Cons

Atlassian is a hard slog but once your in your in right? wrong. unless you have no life outside work whatsoever you are constantly reminded that there are an army of JAVA grads ready to take your job. unless your happy to be in a cult / B-Rated version of Harry Potter avoid at all costs
