Pros

Used to be a great company. They still offer remote work and claim it will never go away. Benefits are average to good.

Cons

Since Scott left things started to go downhill. Now it's more like Meta than anywhere else. Their performance management system is called Apex. It will become the only thing you care about. Expect to be stack ranked to your peers. Performance is based on how well you make your work seen by executives, not actual quality. The company values are now a husk of what they used to be. If interviewing for a role at Atlassian, be sure to ask your recruiter about it.

Pros

-Extremely good benefits/pay -Casual culture that embraces your passions -Great office with coffee and free lunch every day -Above average internal mobility -Good work-life balance -Good internal knowledge sharing for new employees. Uses an extremely modern tool stack (no MS Teams!).

Cons

-Like most tech companies, there is extreme pressure to build the rocketship as it is flying. This affects internal morale and the UX for customers and employees having to cover for poorly built systems/policies -Atlassian has more products/deployments than it knows what to do with, and that confuses both customers and internal teams trying to advise when and why certain tools should be used to solve different project management use cases. -Atlassian makes even the mundane unnecessarily complex with processes and policies
