Amazing Company

Pros

I've never been at a company that loves their employees this much. Also, Atlassian makes tools that are mission critical to users, so there is also a ton of customer love. Amazing for the resume. Smartest/nicest upper management I've ever seen. Hours are pretty good. Free lunch. It's amazing to be part of a winning team. Every quarter is the biggest in the company history. Been profitable for years.

Cons

Atlassian has a habit of hiring above and pushing down. Not the best stop to get big boosts in titles, but you do get amazing experience and to see inside the Atlassian machine.

Good place to work, fewer opportunities after IPO

Pros

Very open environment, people were generally willing to help if you had questions. There were lots of social events, which kept the office upbeat even during harder periods.

Cons

After the IPO, data and information became extremely limited. This is common practice and at no fault of Atlassian, but it made it a far less desirable place for me to work post-IPO

Terrible Middle Management

Anonymous employee

Pros

-Growing company -Friendly and smart people -Unique GTM strategy (no sales) -Lots of good benefits

Cons

-Everyone there is 25 and has a warped reality and are very clicky. They were between 7 and 10 years old in '97 when the dot.com boom started and busted in 2000. They have no idea how good it is now and how lucky they are. It won't last forever. -No sense of time to market. Engineering always misses deadlines. -'Sales' and 'Enterprise' are dirty words. Public company thinks they are still a start-up and can grow 40%YoY without sales and enterprise deals. Good luck! -Lots of redundant roles, everyone is trying to build their mini kingdom -Middle management needs serious training on people management skills and their responsibilities -People (mainly middle management) openly say bad things about their own employees and other individual contributors. Open Company, No BS. How about have respect and not talk behind people's back. -PowerPoint is not used. They use Apple Keynote.
