Thank you for this feedback. Atlan is founder-led by design, and that means you'll have a front row seat to how decisions get made. You'll be in Slack threads and working sessions with our founders on product direction, see customer feedback shaping the roadmap in real time, and when priorities shift you'll understand why. That way of working and level of access isn't for everyone, but for many Atlanians it can be a rewarding source of learning and professional development.
Regarding our global model, you're right: connecting across time zones is an important part of how we work on some of our teams and can feel more challenging and different from other companies with teams only in similar time zones. In return, we encourage flexible schedules, which many Atlanians value.
On the well-being side, we offer flexible PTO, flexible working hours, and shared company closures so teams can actually disconnect together across time zones. We also provide mental health coverage and access to 1:1 counseling. We're continuing to work on where we can delegate decisions and move faster to minimize the risk of burn out.
If you're open to sharing more, we're at peopleops@atlan.com.
