      DO NOT WORK FOR REVOLUT

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      None apart from being the cool kid with the MacBook

      Cons

      - CEO lost touch with the ground since long time - Departments are not organised at all. There are at least 3 departments (dev, ops, legal) for each task involved and each of them do not know that the others are working on the same thing. - Revolut hires freshmen and freshwomen, these kids have no responsibilities (most of them) outside working hours. So they start at 10am and finish at 10pm. This becomes then the standard for everyone. expecting experienced people to follow this schedule. - HR department non existent - STILL WAITING AFTER 6 MONTHS TO BE PAID WITH THE SHARES I EARNED, HOWEVER THERE IS NO CONTACT FOR EXTERNAL.

      Thank you for taking time to write us a review, and for recognising that we invest in the best tech tools so our people can do brilliant work. Revolut has grown tremendously in the past few years, driven by the dedicated, experienced people we've brought onboard and the teams they've built. Like many fast-growing companies, things move fast and that can be hard to keep up and maybe that dive and excitement won't suit everyone. We're always finding ways to create the best Revolut experience for our people and we're delighted that so many people are enjoying the flexibility of being able to choose to work from home whenever they like even when the pandemic's done. Please let us help you out with your shares by contacting hr.uk@revolut.com. We wish you the best.

      Bad management, poor HR practices, would avoid

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Depending on the team you join, you can work on some v. interesting projects that have big biz impact (even as a new joiner) 2. Processes are coming into place: working practices are efficient and agile which feeds into the rapid results-driven mentality/culture. This is good for a startup as ambitious as Revolut. 3. Flat hierarchy, but as the company continues to grow and teams expand, this is likely to change 4. Work-life balance is not bad at all for a startup.

      Cons

      1. *BIG CON*: will fire staff with zero warning + zero transparency. Ie. no past written documentation needed / review history, no vetting of actual reviews submitted by 'managers', no regard for whether or not KPIs have been met etc. Immature management; HR rather clueless/black box. 2. Many instances of 'managers' that are extremely inexperienced and have zero prior leadership experience (leading to 1.) - and do not seem to be interested in leading or people management. Can be very unlucky for those assigned to these managers upon joining. 3. Some service/business teams lack an actual sense of business strategy - leads to disjoined management within teams and lack of clarity (thus, inefficiency + waste).

We've been working on improving HR processes, and making them more transparent and accountable. This year, changing business needs have meant a reorientation of priorities. We pride ourselves on being agile and able to move proactively, instead of sticking rigidly to goals that are no longer relevant to delivering the best possible product to our customers. We're always working on improving our internal communication to make sure all our teams know what our big picture aims are. We're working on supporting our management with a dedicated guild and Management and Leadership Development Manager providing plenty of relevant training modules and other support.

      I should have trusted those bad reviews on Glassdoor myself

      Pros

      Location and office is really cool but hey.... so as many other offices and not many companies have a great culture. Revolut definitely doesn't belong to them.

      Cons

      This is where the fun starts... If you want to work in the company full of arrogant people and never being appreciated on top of super long hours and low pay in comparison to other companies on the market- then go ahead and apply. Just prepare yourself that you will burn out very quickly in the environment like that. If you need any help with your job, prepare yourself for not getting it but the expectations will always stay the same (!). They will always blame you for something that is out of your control. If you do your normal hours 9-6 and you leave at 6, people think that you work part-time. The management team only know how to demotivates their stuff. The company could benefit from many changes but they are not willing to listen (and they are getting rid of people who want to change things) thanks to CEO's vision. It was probably the worst company I was working for and it is a big relief not to be working in such a toxic environment. Fan fact: if you are not a coder or have strong analytical mind or financial background - you are not worth anything. Sounds like fun working for such a company? Not really if you care for your mental health.
