The latest update is out from Atlassian ( (TEAM) ).

On March 11, 2026, Atlassian announced a restructuring that will cut about 10% of its workforce, or roughly 1,600 roles, as it seeks to rebalance operations for the AI era and strengthen long-term efficiency. The company expects total charges of $225 million to $236 million, largely tied to severance and office space reductions, mostly in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, while reaffirming its financial guidance for the March and June 2026 reporting periods.

Management framed the layoffs as a move to self-fund further investment in AI and enterprise sales, accelerate the path to sustained GAAP profitability, and reorganize around its “System of Work” to move faster. As part of the overhaul, Atlassian said Chief Technology Officer Rajeev Rajan will step down effective March 31, 2026, with AI-focused leaders Taroon Mandhana and Vikram Rao promoted into new CTO roles, underscoring a deeper strategic pivot toward AI and large-enterprise customers.

The measures are expected to reshape the company’s skill mix as it positions itself as an AI-first software provider, while offering enhanced separation packages and support to departing staff. The changes signal a bid to meet higher investor expectations on growth and profitability across the software sector, even as Atlassian highlights recent momentum in cloud revenue, large-account growth and usage of its AI products.

The most recent analyst rating on (TEAM) stock is a Hold with a $85.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Atlassian stock, see the TEAM Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TEAM Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TEAM is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by very weak technicals (deep downtrend) and limited valuation support (negative P/E). These are partially offset by solid underlying financial quality (strong gross margins and substantial free cash flow) and a constructive earnings call with strong cloud metrics and reaffirmed mid-term targets, despite near-term Data Center headwinds.
