Pros

Overall a good company but their Customer Support and Success teams operates differently Good compensation and collaboration among other teams Positive energy and willingness to help others

Cons

Support team does not have the same culture as the rest of the company Support senior leadership has a “do what I say, not what makes sense” attitude that trickles down Does not do collaboration well, despite making the software that supports remote collaboration Support leadership fails to keep up with rest of the company from a behavior and teamwork standpoint Places roadblocks to promotion quoting “policy”, internal promotion system is slow Highly qualified persons are passed over for a role and end up training external hires over them despite being “prepped” for the same role Company has grown beyond the scale of the software they make leading to issues and workarounds that slow down productivity Support teams were forced remote during Covid 19, other teams had already made that choice willingly

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.
