Pros

The company itself is very down to earth, ask the founders anything you want, fix issues outside of your job description without a lot of red tape. Great culture, unlike a lot of places people actually use the ping pong table and drink the beer. There's still a lot of room to make an impact, even though the company is about 1000 people, there's definitely more ability to step up and deliver new, cool things.

Cons

There isn't much structure, if you are the type that likes being given things to do, it probably won't work out. You need to be willing to learn new things like how to effectively use new products and technologies.

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.
