How is Atlassian as a company?
Recently Atlassian opened an office in Bangalore. Recruiters reached out. Wanted to know how reputed the firm is. I am currently in Microsoft. What is the work culture? How is work life balance? How is the hiring bar? What kind of work is happening?
Lol. Indya.
What's lol in it? And it's India btw.
Lol uknahn
Interviewed and got an offer. The culture seems to be very inviting and the people seem to be very nice and helpful. Super social too! Don't expect to do things alone when you're at Atlassian. They're pretty strong on their TEAM vs self. Engineers also seem solid. I think there is a big gap between the younger and senior engineers, but overall people are smart and are aware. The only problem is work. I really wish Atlassian grows and does some research-based work. The current products they have seem to be mostly a pretty CRUD app. The apps themselves seem to be engineered well, but there's no real engineering challenge I can see (possibly aside from scale but cloud providers kind of take care of that now)
TC?
Interned at their San Francisco HQ. One of the best cultures I’ve seen: Super friendly and talented people, incredible transparency.
You heading there for FT?
No, had a FT offer but still went back to college.
Interned in SF over the summer and starting fulltime soon. Love the culture & people.
Amazon company. Culture is really good. They’ve infused a lot of Australian culture into the actual company’s culture and values which results in a refreshingly different tech company. Most importantly it’s laid back whilst still being full of hard working people and transparency comes from the very top. Everything revolves around TEAM which means agile and ways of working are really good. Tech stacks are mixture of old and new depending on what team you join but everything is constantly being improved and theirs a big focus on cloud, microservices and adopting similar tools across the company. A tonne of my friends are going to India to onboard employees and are all amazing devs. We also do a pretty good job with integrating the offices since buying Trello and investing in remote workers. Hiring bar is high but not as high as FANG. More emphasis on system design though.
They r shelling out money like anything. I am trying there as well. Work culture seems to be good there
Hope they don't shut down.
Haha. Why so pessimistic?
