* Proviso: Said corporate fanbasers have many times said to me how it's so configurable etc, after spending weeks in the trenches fixing trivial nonsense.
Which tells a lot about the alternatives targeted at corporate users.
I've never understood this trope. Atlassian grew because developers used their product, not corporate fanbasers[0]
no thanks.
Keep in mind JIRA isn't just a bug tracker but a highly configurable workflow tool. It competes with products like HP ALM which often are UX atrocities.
Out of the box, I'm not sure, I don't think I've ever seen it. If what I've seen is out-of-the-box, it's awful.
Like this image from the linked page https://www.atlassian.design/react_assets/images/cards/caree... showing insanely happy people all wearing the same clothes, staring up at some thing which is just unbelievably interesting and inspiring - the great leader/god/Steve Jobs/the CEO/a technical talk on Java?
I just don't want to work at a manufactured cult, which is what all Silicon Valley-esque companies work damn hard to be.
Interviewer: "Tell us why you want a job here at cult company X"
Job seeker: "Because I really want to play foosball every lunchtime, to chug beer with the awesome folks after work in the german beer bar built in to the office, and most of all, to give my youth for this incredibly important mission of changing the world by giving better bug tracking tools to developers everywhere!"
There's a reason the word "culture" starts with "cult".
On iOS and macOS Safari, the grid becomes a single column, with all of the cells overlapping along in the right-side column.

"Meet Pacific Bridge. It's our hero color, and is also affectionately known as B400. We use this blue to help us reinforce our presence and unify our touch points from marketing to product. It's sharp and clear, making it bold and optimistic, while at the same time it's soft and inviting, ..."
But I've also learned Enterprises pay more $$$ for worse unusable UX since that needs consultants and bigger support contracts.
edit: oh, looks like they started doing some actual design, if good I don't know yet.
