In a tank full of sharks

Pros

The company is extremely ambitious, it is building many products at once and wants to become the world's first true superapp. Young people get a lot of responsibility which is unlike most European companies.

Cons

Expect to be completely on your own. The company policy is to hire and fire anyone who cannot deliver immediately and without any help. It is also notorious for hiring multiple people into the same role and then firing the worse one even if both are doing great. A true cut-throat culture with zero focus on development and growing as a team.

Thank you for your review. Revolut is hugely ambitious, has come a long way quickly and learned a lot on the way. Sometimes our ambition has meant we've tried to go too fast but we listen to our people and try to ensure that all voices are heard and that we are working smartly so that everyone can get a reasonable balance between work and the rest of life. We draw talent from many backgrounds - tech, financial services and elsewhere - and we try to ensure that we learn from the best experience and success stories. We want to be a place where our talented people can learn, grow and be successful and we know our drive and dynamism is what makes Revolut a great place to be for many people. We appreciate all that you've done for Revolut, and wish you the best.

Pros

Great products and very smart people all around

Cons

Disorganised HR/People Ops from beginning to end, lots of "A-player" managers with negative people skills, condescending and toxic environment. It's not about the no work-life balance, it's about the terrible and unexperienced people management.

Thank you for your review. We’re glad that you enjoyed working with skilled colleagues - we’re proud to have them - and we’re sorry that it didn’t work out for you. We respect all our people and we work hard to help them have a good experience at Revolut - but we know that this isn’t the right place for everyone. Sometimes our enthusiasm, our ambition, and our determination to get things right can run away with us, it’s not personal. We wish you well in your future career.

Pros

The product is great, it changes quickly A lot of competent people, a lot to learn Looks great on your CV

Cons

Worst work culture I've ever experienced Overtime is a norm, expect to work on weekends. Doing your regular 9-5/6 is not enough and WILL get you fired. Work-life balance is terrible. They will latch onto every single little thing to fire you without any warning. If they don't fire you right away, they will force you to resign by pressuring you psychologically.

We're sorry to learn that didn't enjoy your experience at Revolut, we realise our culture isn't right for everyone and it's a shame it didn't work out. We’re proud of our ambition, it's part of what makes this an exciting place to work, and our goals sometimes demand a lot - but we never want this to have a negative impact on our employees. We certainly don't routinely expect excess hours and we try to support our colleagues. We're glad that you enjoyed working with people that we're really proud to call employees and that you enjoyed working on our amazing products. We wish you the very best for the future.
