Pros

* Thoughtful, genuine culture * Great visibility and open culture * Smart, talented people who care about what they're doing * Interesting work, fast-growing company, resulting challenges and opportunities that arise with scale * Strong values and morality underlying our decisions * Great benefits (fully paid medical for you + your dependents) and perks * Awareness of challenges, openness about them, and desire to improve and get better

Cons

* It seems like maybe we have some opportunities in our internal mobility / promotion efforts - I'm too new to feel personally affected by this but I've heard enough about it to say it may be an opportunity for improvement. My manager is personally very invested in my growth as is my TABP and I feel supported in growing with Atlassian over the long haul.

Pros

Amazing people, I loved the core values, competitive salary, great benefits

Cons

I want to start by saying I am not bitter or angry. Working for Atlassian was a whirlwind. I was there for 11 months before being laid off via email. In my time there, I went through 2 re-orgs and 3 managers. It just always felt like being on a hamster wheel… in a hurricane. Today I received an email 7 weeks after I was laid off that started with, “ Congrats on your first year at Atlassian—we know that's a huge accomplishment and are beyond thrilled to be celebrating with you!” It was a bummer to receive that, to say the least, but it included a link to leave this Glassdoor review to “ help provide invaluable insight to future candidates and help us to improve your experience as an employee continually.” so here I am. My advice is to do proper change management of your automated emails when you layoff 5% of your workforce so that emails like this aren’t sent to hard working former employees that you eliminated congratulating them on a milestone they never reached. I know this wasn’t intentional, but it hurt.
