Last year, the company dropped staff ratings and bonuses, shifting to a flat 8% annual salary rise with monthly “coaching conversations” between managers and team members.

While I guess that's generous, it sounds almost like a public service style seniority system in effect.

I think there was a bit of creative journalism in one of the articles.

Yes, we recently stopped paying individual performance bonuses. Instead, we gave everyone a once off salary bump. We prefer to just pay top market salaries rather than variable personal bonuses. (although we continued to pay the organisational bonus and we've recently given every staff member stock options)

It's not an annual flat 8% rise

ah ok, that was quite creative journalism then. What you're describing sounds much more sensible.

Is Atlassian really a start-up? They are making millions a week, started long time ago, have strict hierarchy and clear separation of roles on many levels. The fact they raised some money recently doesn't matter, Google raises money as well.

Apologies - got mixed up with the wording. Been amended now. Thanks.
