No, they have a massive sales team, they just call them "customer advocates" or "Ecosystem Account Manager" or "Product Advocate"

I particularly like that they have a role called "Loyalty Advocate" that requires experience "working in a channel sales model." If that's not a sales gig I don't know what is.

edit: To be fair to the author that wrote the article, he nearly immediately called out that Atlassian simply had a lower-than-normal amount of money spent on sales and marketing, and made no claim that they didn't have a sales team. I suspect he didn't write the hyperbolic headline -- blame his editor.
