Pros

Apparently the pay can be good but I’d never met anyone earning good money, I think they also brought in a commission cap. You also get a free Revolut card which is the same as any other card but metal so if you like that it’s a great benefit.

Cons

Horrible culture - I found people are quite standoffish and there is a feeling that people don’t bother to interact with new starters because so many get let go. I spoke to my manager about the culture and they said they liked it as it keeps people on their toes. Pay seems good on paper but I never met anyone actually earning the figures they claimed. First quarter I was over 200% of target and got about £300 in comms, in meetings you are told that as you work there longer you could make up to £200k a year but I doubt anyone does. It’s a good name to work for but the reality of it is it’s a terrible place to work. Benefits are pretty nonexistent, you get a free Revolut card which you could just pay £10 for and that’s about it. Fully outbound role means that you’re just cold calling constantly ( you start off with inbound leads but these quickly dry up). Trying to find companies that haven’t already been hammered with cold calls can be hard too as they have so many AE’s and only certain businesses will actually get you money towards your target. In summary save yourself some time and avoid - I only checked glassdoor after starting but the negative reviews are true, the positive reviews are because they ask new starters to do the reviews during the first week/ training period so people don’t have much to complain about/ experience there.

Pros

Everyone is looking to get things done, and they pay quite well. You'll be working in a fast paced environment learning new things daily.

Cons

Quarterly KPIs need to be met or else you could get placed on a Performance Improvement Plan and then laid off. Management has no leadership training and are poor people managers. It is clear that Revolut has been a lot of people's first job in this company and you will encounter some folks with petulant, child like attitudes and lack of professionalism. This is pertinent in some levels of Senior Management as well as you will encounter some people that are very emotional and lash out at their employees.

Pros

Good Salary , Unbiased management

Cons

Honestly, I was never at peace since day 1 of joining this company, since beginning we were told that if we wont perform, we would be terminated immediately. After joining, I got to know that Revolut is doing bulk hiring and firing. Every Monday, minimum 100 people were/are hired from India for support roles and everyday alot of them are terminated as well. Unfortunately, I was also one of them. First 20 days were training, where we were taught about their products and then a test was conducted for which there were 2 attempts. If you don't manage to clear the 2nd attempt also you will be terminated on an immediate basis. After the test, you will start working on real time chats, and will be given unachievable targets. The reason why I am saying unachievable is because it was for me. Not everyone has the same grasping power or learning pace. I was evaluated for around 28 working days and was asked to leave bcz i didn't meet my targets. I have honestly never heard of such a company who terminates on the results of around 28 working days. And I know, it has happened or its been happening to alot of other people as well specially we Indians, coz our labor laws aren't strict and they are getting cheap labor from India. Revolut pays higher salary than the rest of the companies, which is the only attracting factor for many to join. The interview is quite simple and easy to crack, but the worst is only after joining the company.

Hello! Thank you for your review! At Revolut, we're a fast-paced, rapidly growing company. We've achieved a lot in a short time, and this ambitious, dynamic environment can indeed present challenges. We firmly believe that clear performance expectations help us align on common objectives and provide targeted support where needed. Our Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are a product of discussions and agreements between managers and employees, ensuring shared understanding. Additionally, it's worth noting that our KPIs are tailored to roles and specializations rather than specific countries. When setting goals, we are guided by our core values: Never Settle, Get it Done, and Deliver WOW. Staying true to these values over the past eight years has been instrumental in our journey to becoming a global financial superapp. We appreciate all that you've contributed during your time here, and we wish you the best in your next role. - Ryan Jun Hyung Park, Head of HR (APAC)
