      <description>Atlassian said on March 11, 2026 that it would lay off about 1,600 employees, roughly 10% of its workforce, refocusing on &quot;the future of teamwork in the AI era&quot; and enterprise sales growth. CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes told staff the approach was &quot;not &apos;AI replaces people,&apos;&quot; but added that &quot;it would be disingenuous to pretend AI doesn&apos;t change the mix of skills we need or the number of roles required in certain areas.&quot; The cuts spanned North America (40%), Australia (30%), India (16%) and other regions, with completion expected by the end of Q4 2026. The company estimated charges of $225 million to $236 million for severance and office consolidation. Separately, Chief Technology Officer Rajeev Rajan stepped down effective March 31, 2026. Shares rose nearly 2% after the announcement, despite falling 33% over the prior year.</description>

      <description>Atlassian cut 200 customer service positions in September 2025, with the roles concentrated in the Netherlands and France, as the software company replaced human agents with AI-powered support tools. The company said the restructuring was aimed at strengthening customer service through smarter routing and AI automation, having already embedded AI into features such as customer contact forms. This was the second significant round of support-team cuts in 2025, following an earlier reduction of around 150 customer service and support workers earlier in the year. No executive quotes or severance details were included in available reporting. Atlassian serves more than 300,000 customers globally, including 80% of Fortune 500 companies.</description>

      <title>Atlassian cut 150 employees (July 30, 2025)</title>

      <description>Atlassian eliminated 150 positions globally in late July 2025, with 44 of those roles based in Australia, targeting its customer service and support team. CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes delivered the news via a pre-recorded video titled &apos;Restructuring the CSS Team: A Difficult Decision for Our Future.&apos; The company said the cuts reflected a shift in support demand as large customers migrated from legacy software to cloud products, and that remaining issues would increasingly be handled with AI assistance. Workers union Professionals Australia said the redundancies were &apos;due to the impact of artificial intelligence&apos; and called for urgent national discussions on responsible AI deployment. Affected staff receive a minimum of 12 weeks&apos; pay. The announcement came the same day co-founder Scott Farquhar spoke at the National Press Club promoting Australia&apos;s AI infrastructure potential.</description>
