Pros

You can work on products people love to use. You can notice how company tries to change itself from a installed software company to SaaS. You will be able to work closely with product managers and together shape the product. Despite its size company is still rather open so by observing internal communication tools you can get the feel of what's going on and participate in different activities.

Cons

Depending on a team you will join you can face a crappy and abandoned technology that no one else uses. If you wish to keep up with cool technologies it might not be a good place for you. You will face a wall when it comes to making those products technically better - sacred APIs that cannot be changed, scary plugin system or hacked maven for builds. I would advise to choose teams that work on recently created products. Avoid more mature ones. Company grows a lot and plans to do so in the upcoming years, so despite their great values atmosphere starts to feel like in any other "corporation" - multi level managerial structure, bad people management.

Pros

Good atmosphere and vibe in the company, great to be a part of something so successful and I feel I am learning a lot from the people around me.

Cons

So much growth and change means it feels a little messy at times. So many new people are joining that teams don't feel settled yet and you have to get used to things changing every week.

Pros

The company is willing to take chances on employees who maybe don't have the official experience yet, allowing some extremely talented people to emerge. The people that work at Atlassian are interesting, engaging and supportive making going to work everyday enjoyable.

Cons

There are not clear, defined paths for advancement (unless an employee takes it upon themselves to carve it out). The open company no "bs" value (yes that's one of the values) is great but it's also sometimes distracting because there is constantly a lot of activity.
