Pros

Absolutely nothing, other than being paid 12 times per annum

Cons

AVOID WORKING HERE 1) The culture is rotten from the top down. You are expected to work long hours, evenings and weekends without a thank you. Seriously damaging to everyone’s mental health. I have personally suffered terribly and line manager didn’t care for a second. There is a mental health first aid program but tbh it’s a plaster over a bullet wound. Expect your manager to chase you every evening asking where things are using the company Instant Messenger system. I recommend not giving your manager your telephone number. 2) There is no support to achieve goals… they call it the A-Team but really it means sink or swim. Goals are impossible to meet and you are set up for failure. Revolut’s top team have an inflated opinion of themselves and think everyone should be a FinTech maniac. People are simply not all the same and this place can’t fathom that. Unfortunately there is a huge turnover of staff so all your colleagues change frequently, friends you’ve made leave and you’re left even more isolated. 3) You may be young but understand the perks here are awful - pension is capped at 50k of salary (not mentioned during recruitment), bonus is nothing compared to what the recruiter promises and this growth shares thing means it’s almost impossible to realise it, no life cover, the “all the tech you could need” comment is a lie. 4) Promotions are extremely hard to come by. Training is non-existent. You may receive a strong rating from your line manager, and then the head of department (who you’ve never spoken to) downgrades it. This affects your bonus and promotion/pay rise discussions. If you have other offers, go there.

Hi there, thank you for your review. Revolut has grown tremendously in a short span of time with the support of our Revoluters. We value our people and aim to support them. We encourage people to put their health first despite their ambitions, and our trained Mental Health First Aider community is there for anyone who needs to talk, can advise people on how to cope with work pressures, and encourages them to take longer breaks to recharge. If your experience is different please contact me directly so we can investigate and improve our processes. As Revolut's business and products evolve, I hope so has our inclusive culture. We set ourselves ambitious goals but we also want to understand what the roadblocks are and what we can change to make it easier to achieve those goals. In terms of compensation, our People team works hard to ensure salary & benefits competitiveness across markets, although we're obviously in a very competitive market. We regularly assess and compare our people's pay to adjust it to the current benchmark. I hope you'll consider raising your feedback internally with me or via Whistleblowing Portal so that I can do more to support you. Thank you for all that you do. I wish you well. Matthew Maher Head of People Department

Pros

+ Everyone knows Revolut - easier conversations. + Product is top tier. + Good benefits. + Good on your resume.

Cons

- Poor sales leadership - for a company so successful, very shocked at the low calibre of talent in senior sales roles. But product is so strong and they are not measured on employee retention so impossible for them to fail. - Tech stack minimal. - Large elements of favouritism.
