Pros

Lot of parties and celebrations. 6 hour, 4 day work week. Monday is supposed to be work from home but hardly anyone works. Your manager can not ask you to complete any work on time, literally no deadlines are followed

Cons

Bengaluru site is a support site and no real work happens here. Everything is dictated by management from Sydney or Mountain View. Its ok for administrative and clerical staff but not recommended for good engineers, designers and product folks. Company talks a lot about values and culture because there are serious problems in their values.

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.
