Pros: Decent pay. Some really good coworkers.

Cons: Brutal performance reviews, where you feel the need to work overtime, compete with team members, and only complete work that will reflect well on your performance review. Lots of pressure from upper management to complete company-wide initiatives with not enough time or resources. This leads to scrappy, unmaintainable code and no time to focus on improving or maintaining services. All my coworkers I've talked to are trying to leave.

Pros: - A lot of things to learn. The tech stack here is up-to-date. - Your colleagues are smart and friendly. - Work-life balance. The company really cares about its employees. Lots of benefits.

Cons: Employees here are easily spoiled by the benefits.

Pros: Atlassian has done a great job supporting all employees throughout the last few very strange years. With extra days off, open and honest conversations about mental health, free mental health and wellness resources and services, generous budgets for buying WFH equipment, and a culture that is far more about ensuring that everyone is doing their best than hitting every target every time, it has made the last two years far less stressful for me. The people that I have worked with in this company have all been fantastic—helping each other out, pushing each other to try new things, and generally creating an amazing work environment.

Cons: I really miss the office life, and with Atlassian's stance on working from home (no one will ever need to work from an office again), I don't think we will ever get that back.
