Process
The interview process involved a phone interview followed by five rounds of virtual on-site interviews:
- 2 coding rounds
- 1 value-based interview
- 1 design interview
- 1 hiring manager interview
The questions were of easy to medium difficulty. What struck me was that after spending a whole day with their engineers, they sent a template rejection email without even modifying the customized part. My employer was not "XXX company".
Incidentally, they sent the template after a week, without any communication in between. They had said they would contact me in a day or two. I also sent two emails to appreciate their effort and ask for a follow-up. It seems their hiring team doesn't understand basic courtesy. If you cannot move forward with a candidate, at least send an email to notify them.
Will you promise something to your customer like this? Is this how your company shows its value? No BS?
Ironically, they sent a questionnaire to collect data about hiring democracy.
I finally understand the word "Corporate".
Questions

Atlassian Work Experiences
- 1.0Bad work-life balance, great pay, stack ranking, toxic managersSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeOctober 13, 2023Pros: Competitive salary, but given how much you work, you start only working for the holidays, then feel miserable on day 1 back in the office.Cons: - Stack ranking: They said employee turnover is too low, so every team of a large enough size needs to allocate a low performer. It's almost like the goal is to get you to leave so they can counterbalance the overhiring. As others have said, you need to do significant work to constantly reframe the work you do as valuable and only done by you.
- 1.0Toxic Culture, Pip ThreatSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeMelbourne, Victoria, AustraliaFebruary 16, 2024Pros: Pay is relatively higher, but not worth it for this toxic environment.Cons: If you return from parental leave from work, you get PIP. If your manager dislikes you, you get PIP regardless of your contribution. Backstabbing and stepping on each other's toes is common now. Burnout and long working hours. No support from management at all; they just abuse you for their achievement. Toxic culture. Stay away.
- 5.0Chill Culture, Almost Too MuchSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeSydney, New South Wales, AustraliaOctober 27, 2022Pros: Work is very flexible and chill. Nice culture.Cons: Sometimes it is too chill.
