Atlassian is a UK company.
Obviously half employees including directors are in Australia, so that opens up to pression anyway, just like Japan could in theory compell a director of a foreign company by threatening to jail him on a fortuitous tax accusation. The directors would never be so square as to not comply, right?
- guitarbill 8y agoYes, while they were founded in Australia, the parent company Atlassian Corporation Plc is located in the UK (presumably for stock market reasons?). But they still have subsidiaries in Australia, which arguably does a lot of work given that at least a third of their employees are in Australia, and so would be subject to the local laws. The employees could be compelled to bypass things and not be allowed to talk about it to anybody, including the parent company.
