During the previous round (see CrunchBase), Scott Farquhar said some employees will be able to buy a little home with the shares they have. I'm not sure employees who joined in the last years (when it became bigger than 500 people) should get equity at all, but I don't know how this opinion compares with the rest of the industry.
- randycupertino 11y agoA home where? Probably not in SF or the Bay Area with those #s. Maybe in Seattle.
- icebraining 11y agoWell, their HQ is in Sydney, Australia, so I don't see why they would be referring to the Bay Area.
- randycupertino 11y agoI live in SF and a bunch of my friends work for Atlassian. They have a SF office with a lot of people in it: https://www.atlassian.com/company/careers/all-jobs?location=San%20Francisco https://www.atlassian.com/company/careers/all-jobs?location=...
- ryanackley 11y agoFormer employee here. The previous "round" was a private sale of stock from current and former employees to T. Rowe Price. No money went to the company but we got to sell a third of our shares. Scott was probably talking about proceeds from that third. Trust me when I say it's gonna be a huge life-changing windfall for most employees I know from my time there (I left in 2013).
