Process
The process involved far too many steps.
Communication issues with one of my interviewers caused a lot of wasted time trying to understand the ask.
At the end, I was told I'd need to interview for a different team instead.

Some great business processes.
Some really bad managers
Software Engineer • Former Employee

Pros: There are a number of very good processes set up within the company.
Flexibility to move around teams.
You will know how to use Agile and Jira in a proper way; it's actually a really good tool.
Cons: My manager was not technical, knew very little about the subject, and at the same time was trying to micromanage – the worst manager in my career. I'm very surprised how Atlassian could keep people like this. I have to say there are some really good managers at Atlassian, though.

Pros: - Company values are being lived.
- Lots of perks.
- Opportunity to take time to care for things you'd like to change.
- Lots of team-building efforts.
Cons: It might seem "unorganized" sometimes due to lean structures, but I'm in general fine with that as things work out well.
