Vantaggi

1) Remote and WFH policy 2) Good pay benfits

Svantaggi

Atlassian has become a masterclass in how to erode a good engineering culture. Leadership operates in a bubble of self-congratulation, completely detached from how dysfunctional things have become on the ground. There is no real strategy—just a constant stream of half-baked initiatives that get rebranded every quarter. Teams are expected to absorb endless churn while leadership avoids accountability for the chaos they create. Execution is poor because direction is nonexistent. The culture leans heavily on buzzwords like “transparency” and “empowerment,” but in reality, it’s passive-aggressive and political. Speaking up is tolerated only when it aligns with leadership narratives; otherwise, it quietly hurts your growth. What’s left is an organization where talented engineers are stuck navigating confusion, inflated egos, and pointless process instead of doing meaningful work.

Vantaggi

Amazing people, I loved the core values, competitive salary, great benefits

Svantaggi

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.
