- tajen 11y agoWant in? https://www.atlassian.com/company/careers https://www.atlassian.com/company/careers ;) When a company has had 30% growth per year according to their F-1 filing (This is a ballpark - please check the filing), you don't need to wait to get hired. More seriously, in a Forbes article last year Scott Farquhar said some employees would be able to buy a house, so there are probably some people who want to pursue some personal projects. I expect Syndey real estate to become very expensive, but I also expect such companies to have some retention policy, like progressive vesting and post-IPO lock-in period.
- oliyoung 11y ago“Scott Farquhar said some employees would be able to buy a house“ To be fair, it is Sydney ;)
- Cogito 11y agoSydney is one of the most expensive housing markets in the world [1]. It was actually much higher in the list, but the weak Australian dollar means that the US dollar stretches quite a bit further. I seem to recall that cost of living in Sydney is also one of the highest in the world, but didn't find any sources on that.

- krzyk 11y agoSydney 7,250 per m^2 Prague 4,569 per m^2 And now add earnings to that and Sydney is not that expensive. Pure price per m^2 says nothing, the important thing is how much m^2 I can buy with my average salary.
