Atlassian

• Great transparent culture.
• Good team leaders and managers.
• Great perks for developers (e.g., ShipIt days).

• Compensation is 'ok', but nothing extremely competitive (the equity component is good though).
• Uninspiring corporate HR.
• Sometimes people or teams are asked to drop current work and start working on things with 'higher priority'.

Now, in 2014, Atlassian is a great company. The only comment I would make is to stop doing what every other company is doing.

Atlassian used to have its own unique culture. Management and HR experimented with new things. But in the past year, it seems that everything that made us special has been replaced by practices that are uninspiring and/or widely known to be bad for companies (e.g., performance distribution curves, etc.).
