Pros

Smart people, generally a meritocracy Nice offices with all the perks Cool technologies

Cons

Not what it claims to be culture wise. Seems like most people were more concerned with making themselves valued than actually creating a cohesive team. I was suddenly terminated after two years of "valued" performance reviews. Definitely not the best engineer, but I didn't deserve to be kicked to the curb and treated so poorly. Security escorted me out after the surprise firing. No severance, no bonus (one month away from it), nothing. That's at-will employment for you I guess.

Atlassian is where ambition goes to die

Pros

Smart, friendly co-workers and a nice downtown office location. Plenty of time to slack, not do much of anything and be promoted for it. Just stay happy and abide by the illustrious company values.

Cons

Too much politics, and nonsense. People landing senior jobs because of relationship, not experience or skill. These same managers routinely chastise the (smarter) members of their team just to keep employed, knowing they're unemployable at any other company. To be honest, if you have something to offer, look elsewhere.

Pros

None anymore. The changes are making it just like any other tech company but strange processes that are overly ridiculous. The amount of people leaving at all levels in the last few months is only accelerating.

Cons

Atlassian no longer pays 100% for health insurance and is forcing ONLY the US employees to now pay for part of the premiums the company used to pay for 100%. Every major change in the last year has had the words "standard" or "market" justifying every change in taking things away from employees. If you want to work for a "market" or standard" type of tech company, this is it! The reviews from more than a year ago no longer apply as it is NOT the same company anymore. Atlassian is the WORST place ever if you want a promotion. the amount of hoops you have to jump through is hilarious. All for MAYBE a 5% raise? The effort does NOT equal the outcome. Stack ranking....good luck with this!
