After 1,000 days of experimenting with the distributed work model, Atlassian reports significant benefits, including no dip in productivity, better talent acquisition, and improved diversity and inclusion efforts. The company, which ranks 7th in Fortune's Best Places to Work, uses its own products like Atlas, Confluence, and the newly acquired Loom to facilitate asynchronous work and maintain team connections across time zones. Asynchronous work, which is also being practiced at human resources (HR) platform Remote, allows for flexibility across different time zones, enabling companies to access a wider talent pool and potentially increase productivity. Atlassian's strategy includes dedicated leadership, tech optimization, and data-driven adjustments. With employees experiencing 13% less time in meetings and 32% more focused work, the company has also seen a boost in connection and engagement by 27%.
