Pros

I joined Atlassian over a year ago, intrigued by the story around how it lived and breathed its values. This has proven 100% true. I've never quite seen a company so dedicated to its values. Even more, it's a company that recognizes people who achieve outcomes and get things done. It’s about showing, not telling. + Dynamic, self-reflective organization. Constantly evaluating what’s working, what’s not, and trying to keep getting better. + At a fascinating point in its growth, going big and scaling massively, with tons of room to get in early and help define the future of a thriving, successful multi-product business. + Not a one-trick pony. Has a broad, healthy product portfolio.

Cons

- Still learning how to go global effectively; a lot of the work and relationships are still in Australia, which means modest travel and remote relationship building skills is needed if you’re in the other locations. - Struggling to grow and develop both individual contributors and managers; need for more training. - Some tension between marketing and product development. +/-: Values people who can constantly embrace change, adapt to it, and thrive in it.

Not perfect, but pretty great

Pros

Superb environment: smart, nice, ethical people, easy access to management, great food (!!), fun place. Company lives it values, doesn't just talk about them (like most companies in my experience). One of the core values is: Open Company, No BS. The company lives that one really well. (Glassdoor political correctness will not allow me to spell out the full word of the value)

Cons

Pretty intense. company growing like crazy; produces a bit of occasional frenzy. Also, shifting priorities can produce some stress; however that also produces lots of growth opportunities, and chances to switch teams when priorities shift. Australian company; they can be pretty direct.

Pros

* Innovation or 20% time to go and explore new things technically * Working with some pretty brilliant people * Great work/life balance * Most people live the company values every day * Products are growing and the organization is growing, there's aways new opportunities if you look for them

Cons

* Diversity is lacking, though initiatives exist to help fix that * Personal performance visibility from your manager is a bit lacking, it's not always clear if you are performing * Management could use additional training on growth and being better managers * Everyone's vision of what the company's values mean doesn't always perfectly align, sometimes use the values as justification for some pretty poor behaviors * IT is unable to support the organization, getting anything done in IT is just calling in favors
