Pros

Awesome office space, amazing company culture (openness, willingness to try new things, always improving on processes and procedures, supportive, collaborative), great benefits, good career opportunities if you do good work, employees' freedom to give their opinion on all aspects of the business, very little micro managing, travel opportunities to other office in Sydney and Amsterdam, good kitchen luncheon food as well as snacks, fruit, drinks, staff are very social in and outside the office, people really care about their work and very few slackers if any, staff are highly passionate about their work and the company culture, everyone is self-motivated and self-managed, no secrets, ask someone what they are working on and they'll gladly tell you

Cons

New management has a more pessimistic view of employees than management of the earlier days.

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.
