      Pros

      -Passionate, genuine people who want to build something special -Truly a values-driven organization, Atlassian really does rally around the company values when big decisions need to be made -There are still a lot of problems to solve which means there's a lot of space to build solutions and take ownership over key projects -Lots of autonomy

      Cons

      -With lots of growth, change is constant, it does take effort to keep up -Communication has been a bit of an issue as the company has grown, although it appears to be improving on all fronts

      Pros

      Quick note: I wish you could give half ratings! I don't think Atlassian is a 3, but I also wouldn't give it a 4. - You'll be working alongside some awesome people. The majority of people are extremely friendly and are almost always willing to lend a hand. - There's a lot of senior talent. If you're new to the game you can learn a lot. - You get a lot of autonomy in your day to day work. - Our company values actually mean something. A lot of people live the values and we celebrate that openly as a company. - Work/life balance is great, though that seems to get tougher and tougher the higher up the ladder you go. - Free lunch and perks. - Despite all the problems listed below, they're genuinely trying to fix them and make it a better place for everyone to work.

      Cons

      - Sometimes it can seem as if we're moving at a glacial pace, other times we're moving way too fast. We need to find a good pace and stick with it. - A lot of the work done doesn't ship for various reasons. We pivot a lot and other times a bigger, more important project will come along which means the current work gets canned and the team transitions to a different project. - Atlassian has a tendency to tackle big projects all at once which means they can drag on for years. - Compared to the market average, Atlassian underpays. This is true for Sydney and the US. - We say "Open company, no bull#$%" but there's a lot of bureaucracy at the top. - If you don't have a good manager who will fight for you, you're going to struggle. This is especially important when it comes to performance reviews and interesting projects. - Atlassian favours extroverts. The only way to get yourself out there and known to senior management is by promoting your work and speaking at town halls or writing blog posts on the global Confluence instance. - Favourites get the interesting work. This is great if you're a favourite, but can be hard if you're an introvert and don't like promoting yourself or if you have a bad manager. - A lot of change over at the middle management level.
