I mean, I assume that they don't actually care about small companies, they don't have much money anyways. In these scenarios, they tend to act as a "loss-leader" for marketing purposes, mostly.

FWIW Atlassian's perspective is generally more like "they don't have much money yet, so let's get them while it's easy to get them". Small companies grow into big companies, and small single-team deployments tend to spread into big whole-company deployments - but small customers are much easier to get than large customers :)
