Pros

* Innovation or 20% time to go and explore new things technically * Working with some pretty brilliant people * Great work/life balance * Most people live the company values every day * Products are growing and the organization is growing, there's aways new opportunities if you look for them

Cons

* Diversity is lacking, though initiatives exist to help fix that * Personal performance visibility from your manager is a bit lacking, it's not always clear if you are performing * Management could use additional training on growth and being better managers * Everyone's vision of what the company's values mean doesn't always perfectly align, sometimes use the values as justification for some pretty poor behaviors * IT is unable to support the organization, getting anything done in IT is just calling in favors

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.
