This is the second successive year that
Atlassian has featured among the top workplaces for women in India
Bengaluru, September 26, 2022 – Atlassian Corporation Plc (NASDAQ: TEAM), a leading provider of team
collaboration and productivity software and the maker of Jira, Confluence,
Bitbucket, and Trello, today announced that it has been recognised in the ‘Top
50 Best Workplaces for Women 2022' in the large companies category, by the Great Place to Work
Institute. This is the second consecutive year that the company has been
recognised as a top workplace for women in India, based on its unique work
culture that includes openness, teamwork, and innovation.
Atlassian, which established a local presence in 2018, has grown
its office in Bengaluru into a world-class R&D center by hiring the
smartest technical minds and intentionally creating a diverse, equitable, and
inclusive environment. The company also recently announced its plans to grow
its India team to over 3,000 employees by the end of FY24 (July 1-June 30).
Atlassian
is a strong proponent of building a culture of inclusivity and diversity at the
workplace and is actively working towards supporting women in tech. The
company’s unique parental leave
policy, childcare support benefits, mentoring initiatives, flexible work
options, and a generous allowance for remote working setup and tools provide
women with a conducive and favourable work environment to excel in. Apart from
this, Atlassian also has an annual
women-focused event - She Talks Tech, which is an inspiring tech
talk series that provides women in the tech space to connect, network, and
learn from each other.
In 2020, with the recent emergence of remote and hybrid work
models, Atlassian introduced Team Anywhere, a flexible work policy that gives
its employees a choice to work from home, the office, or a combination of both,
whereby employees get to choose what works best for them based on their
work and lifestyle.
“It gives me immense pleasure to see Atlassian's recognition as a
Great Place to Work for Women for the second consecutive year in India. It’s exciting to know that not
only are more women joining the engineering workforce in the country, but that our unique culture
is able to attract and retain some of the best female talent within the
country. As we look to ramp up our hiring in India and grow to a 3,000 employee
base in the next two years, we will see more women joining our workforce from
across India”, said Dinesh Ajmera, Site Lead, India, Atlassian.
Vandana Abraham, Head of Design, ITSM, Atlassian said, “During my four
years at Atlassian, I’ve been able to get exposure to different parts of the
business from strategy through to operations, and really supercharge my
learning. I’ve seen many talented women thrive in all stages of their careers
thanks to the unique Atlassian culture. One of the things that is so special
about working at Atlassian is the value and emphasis it places on creating an
environment where everyone’s voice is heard. I’m proud to work at Atlassian and
can’t wait to see the great female talent we hire as we continue to invest
deeply in the Indian market.”
