Pros

Good technology Usually slightly above average pay

Cons

Truly the most shocking culture I have ever witnessed. I have 5 years experience and have worked globally across the world. Revolut offered me the job via Linkedin and I have worked there for 6 months. Managers are not trained and some rarely check in with their team. Additionally, you are given targets/kpis after probation that are so high there would be no way to meet them in 40 hour work week. If you do not meet the targets once in a quarter, you immediately are triggered into a PIP plan (without your consent) and I have seen 50% of my team leave or be forced to leave. They will not take into account the challenges set by them (changing goal posts, not having enough budget which means we cannot reach our targets.) The managers do not have your back, there is no focus on wellbeing. Taking a day off gives you anxiety because the targets are so high. I truly cannot comprehend how bad this culture is. I also read 50% of Revolut hires leave or are fired (by pip) within 6 months. It is purposely set up this way and it is truly immoral and shameful company.

Pros

remote work, offers health insurance day 1

Cons

does not understand the market in the U.S. The commission rate is perhaps the worst in the industry, the company seems to still be trying to figure out why the U.S. Does not convert as regularly to other currency. The strategic plan is non-existent. Along with this they spy on employees.

"Hi, thank you for your review. We're sorry that your experience with us didn't work out. For the last 7 years we're doing things that haven’t been done before and it seems we're really successful. Let the numbers speak: 20+ Milton customers, 200+ countries and regions supported, 30+ in-app currencies, 5000 + Revoluters working over the world. We achieved it all in 7 years only, and yes we have an appetite for more. We’ve a fast paced culture so we appreciate that Revolut might not be the right place for everyone - but our people achieve a huge amount and have a lot of fun. We wish you best.

Pros

The product is interesting The compensation may or may not be ok, depending on the expectations for your role

Cons

Terrible planning for solutions, everyone needs what they need ASAP with no consideration on how viable the solution is long term Almost noone will push back on bad ideas from upper management in fears of getting fired Excessive focus on KPIs Overall arrogant, often clueless management that will not take any feedback seriously (maybe they will pretend to listen to it, but will never adapt via actions) Operations side is especially messy, maybe product side is somewhat better?
