Pros

- Perks & Compensation are good. - The company "thinks outside the box" & experiments: I got hired with zero web-dev experience, but they were willing to train me after determining I was a good engineer & a team player. - People I work with are really good engineers and are proactive. - Company demonstrates its values through actions. - Foundation Leave & Charity support.

Cons

- Company still adjusting to significant growth in workforce size - Legacy code exists (pre-AWS days) in some core products and requires significant effort to manage. - Stress levels for downtime can vary significantly depending on team you are on and how critical your team's service is & how many people are in it.

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.
