Pros

Working for Atlan is a completely autonomous environment. You have the freedom and trust the get the job done when and how works best for you. There is zero micro-management. You feel inspired by the leadership team and the journey we are on to give 120% every day. What's clear here is the massive emphasis around collaboration and working together as one team for a collective goal. The successes across the business are never down to just one person, it is always a team effort and these are always celebrated. There is A LOT of positivity and shoutouts communicated across the business. Since joining, anyone I have reached out to has been eager help with any question I have - nothing is too big or small. One thing I really love about Atlan is the diversity of cultures across the business and how these are championed such as a weekly club pride hangout. I have never worked in an environment before where there is so much transparency from the top down. Information is freely shared and easily accessible from a business perspective which has been truly refreshing but also makes you feel empowered that you are part of something much bigger than your day-to-day role/responsibilities. Finally, new ideas are welcomed and encouraged. If there is a better way of doing something you are encouraged to speak up!

Cons

This is not a con but working for a startup is very different to working for a global corporate. You need to be adaptable and have a growth mindset as things can change on a daily basis. If you don't thrive in this type of environment then it may not be a good fit for you.

Pros

1. Company used to have a decent onboarding experience & employee engagement for new peeps coming in. Haven't seen much of it in the last 6 months. 2. Helpful IT & Operations management team. Moving to a new place was a breeze with their assistance. 3. Had an amazing time working with the DevOps team. Kudos! #WillNeverForgetRuleNo2

Cons

4. Company culture is all gimmick & no play. Have encountered multiple peeps during my tenure who joined the company because of what was sold to them in terms of work culture, learning curve, and exposure one gets. But once you get there after an exceptionally long interview process, you'd soon realized that it's just the same as any other startup out there if not the crushing in these aspects. 5. The company pivoted in 2019 without taking the entire team into confidence. Have seen folks working day and night for months without a break. Although it was the right time to pivot, some empathy towards folks who were let go off would have helped. 6. Had a good run working with the middle management but the influence from 7- 8 Veterans is making the company toxic in terms of work culture. They control every aspect of things and the company's value usually doesn't apply to them. 7. Many folks left (or got fired) in recent times - the company started downscaling and the reasons were ambiguous. 8. Off boarding process is a perk given to selected favorites. In the eye of management, not everyone deserves that no matter how hard they have worked during their tenure. 9. Company has taken various initiatives to create a feedback mechanism to improve the efficiency of every team member. But these feedback are often subjective, hence poorly reflected on, and is often linked to one's variable salary pay. + this mechanism is non-existent for top management. 10. The salary offered is not competitive and as per industry standards. You do get a team of professionals to work with, but you (along with them) would be treated as commodities rather than assets.
