Pros

Decent salary comparing to the market. Lot of written documentation. Not much meetings.

Cons

One big technical debt. People without energy, without initiative. The most exciting part of job is half-year self-assessment. Hard to force yourself to do something, and if you try - then it's hard to have fun with your work when your code compiles 10 minutes, then starts 10 minutes, only to crash and you're never sure if it's your fault or it's flaky environment.

Pros

On paper, compensation is good. Nice offices. Some interesting technical challenges. Some really smart coworkers.

Cons

Clueless management and "leadership". Squeezing employees and then PIPing them if they are not continually going above and beyond. Fear based culture. Performance review every 6 months that is extremely intensive and engineers are graded on PR count, confluence pages created, interviews given, etc. This leads to overwork and burnout, while software teams don't focus on solving actual problems due to poor management and "leaders" focusing on the wrong things. I am not opposed to performance management, but Atlassian has some severe flaws in their current approach that I believe will negatively impact the company's performance in the long term.

Pros

Atlassian Is not good for Support engineer, they will give very high salary like no one will give in nehterlands. Policy is very good,Very flexible, Everything is good people are good.

Cons

When I joined Atlassian three years ago, I thought it would be a lifelong career. I focused on product support, believing it was a stable path. However, the company completely shut down our support team in the Netherlands. That experience taught me a harsh lesson: no matter how good your salary is, product support roles can vanish overnight, leaving you with skills that may not be relevant in the rapidly evolving tech landscape, especially with AI transforming everything. For those who spend years in product support, it can feel like job security—but in reality, you risk becoming isolated from what’s happening in the broader tech world. If you want to remain competitive and future-proof your career, relying solely on product support is a dangerous path
