Pros

- fantastic group of people, both professionally and personally - benefits are incredible and unmatched by any other company - amazing company with large goals and the ability to hit them and CEOs that actually give a crap about each employee - I feel very support by all my team leads and managers all the way up - flexibility is amazing, which makes my one con a positive, I can make up work when i need to or want to and take breaks when i need them as well - the ability to work from work, home, or anywhere - they do a fantastic job of keeping up the culture, the benefits, and making sure employees are happy and getting what they want out of their company

Cons

- work life balance definitely can depend on the team, I am pretty stretched thin most of the time - it can be hard to move up i the company because people stick around for so long that unless someone leaves a management positions it's already full - good and bad, i supposed, literally no one gets fired. This means you will have to work with people that really shouldn't be here (there are only a few, but they are around)

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.
