Pros

I’ve been working at the company for more than three years and overall it’s been an excellent experience. It’s a top company in its space and the level of execution and ambition is something I haven’t really seen elsewhere. One of the things I appreciate the most is the opportunity to keep learning while working with very experienced and capable people. Being surrounded by that level of talent naturally pushes you to improve and develop your skills. The company is very focused on delivering results, and it’s motivating to see the company grow, reach major milestones, and achieve ambitious goals. Being part of that journey is genuinely rewarding and keeps motivation high. There is also a strong culture of ownership and trust. People are given real responsibility and are expected to take initiative, which makes the work meaningful. At the same time there is a lot of flexibility. The company is remote-first and teams are very international, so you end up working with colleagues from all over the world, which is another great aspect of the experience. There are probably many other positive aspects I haven’t even mentioned, but overall it’s a great place for people who want to learn, take ownership, and be part of a company that is growing fast and achieving big things.

Cons

The main downside is that expectations are high, and during busy periods work-life balance can be challenging. That said, it’s also part of working in a fast-growing and ambitious environment, and learning how to manage that balance is part of the growth that comes with it.

Pros

Working at Revolut was one of the most rewarding experiences in my career. Every day brought something new to learn, and I was trusted with meaningful work from the beginning. The pace is fast, but that's exactly what helped me develop my analytical thinking, decision-making, and financial crime investigation skills. I genuinely enjoyed working with my team, they were approachable, knowledgeable, and always willing to help when needed. If you're someone who enjoys solving complex problems, taking ownership, and continuously learning, you'll appreciate the culture here. Looking back, I'm grateful for everything I learned during my time at Revolut.

Cons

The probation period can be quite challenging because the expectations are high from the start. There is a lot to learn in a relatively short period, and it can feel a little overwhelming initially. That said, once you adapt to the pace and understand the processes, it becomes much more manageable and rewarding.
