      Trying to hold on to a once amazing culture

      Senior insights analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - many offices + remote-first work (best of both worlds?) - good pay and benefits, PTO easy to take - Australian culture, more progressive if you're looking for it - Investing heavily in creating a solid remote-first culture

      Cons

      - Recent performance management system to stack rank - Culture took a dive with new engineering leadership - Teams aren't co-located, so could be tough to onboard and learn if you want tight mentorship and teamwork

      Solid strong company, but not team

      Principal data engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great and professional people. I met many really smart individuals there, and it was an honor to work alongside them. Very flexible workplace approach - fully remote or hybrid if you want. Great offices. Very strong compensation package Great technical challenges and scale.

      Cons

      Bad work/life balance: a lot of priorities and lack of long-term planning (last 3 months we worked with data migration in fire, because it wasn't added to the initial migration process from on-prem) Absolutely not a team: - If the candidate complains to the interviewer, it becomes hell. I supervised an interview. And candidate absolutely with no reason complained about it. So it looked more like a panic in the company, and I had to prove that the interviewer was good. It's a luck that I supervised it. Otherwise cannot imagine a sanction for the interviewer. One. ONE candidate complain (without a real reason) -> butt pain. - I heard about a case when people lost their jobs for doing some mistakes with customers. Mistakes as experience for growth? Not about Atlassian - I heard about silent layoffs with bad performance reasons. Right before bi-annual reviews (not after).

      Culture has gone sour

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Compensation is competitive; if you have a good manager then life can be good; leftover good culture vibes from the early days still resonating

      Cons

      Overall culture is now mini-Microsoft, politics and backstabbing galore. Cut throat review process being used not only to get rid of under performers, but also as a political tool to get rid of high performing people managers don't like or feel threatened by. If you get a toxic manager there is no protection against mistreatment or fabricated reviews. Company management doesn't seem to have a good handle on how to evolve, has adopted a take it or leave it approach to employees.
