In some ways. They did raise $60 million, too, which didn't hurt. I think we're doing just fine having a successful business on our own terms.

For what it's worth, Atlassian's NYC headquarters is… our Fog Creek offices, complete with private offices for coders. More about that here: https://medium.com/make-better-software/apple-is-about-to-do...

The NYC 'headqarters' is not even on their list of locations

https://www.atlassian.com/company/careers

so I'd be surprised if it hosts a signficant percentage of their development workforce. As far as I know their Sydney office is really the heart of their operation and it's very open plan.

I don't think he is saying Atlassian HQ is _located_ at Fog Creek, but that Atlassian HQ has a similar office plan as Fog Creek, "complete with private offices for coders".
