      Anxiety Driven Development

      Software engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people and great remuneration!

      Cons

      Atlassian’s biggest flaw isn’t the tech, it’s the management. Instead of building trust or giving clear direction, they try to “motivate” people through pressure and fear. The result? Teams constantly scrambling, rushing features just to hit arbitrary dates. Corners get cut, bugs slip through, and everyone’s too anxious to speak up. It’s not innovation- it’s survival.

      1 Metric-obsessed performance system leading to unhealthy bottom elimination 2 Corrosive culture with increasingly “Meta-like” middle management 3 Detached leadership focused more on pleasing the board than empowering engineers

      Pros

      Decent pay Great perks if you’re in the cool club WFH is really convenient for life

      Cons

      Culture is shot Strategy jumps around, and even if it was good, the politics stops any work getting done. APEX takes lots of time, is highly political and has ruined all sense of psychological safety
