Pros

Ambition of the business is immense. A lot of good people "within the ranks"

Cons

Leadership continues to distrust employees and gives zero autonomy. No value given to strategy or brand at all. All tactic, no strategy. Macho, ego driven communication style prevalent across the LON team makes it feel quite toxic.

Hello, thank you for your review. You are right that Revolut has a lot of ambition and we're proud to have so many great A-players to help us deliver for our customers. Our global ambition can mean that we demand a lot - although most Revoluters thrive on our aspirational culture. We work hard too to communicate our strategy at group, country and product level. Please do get involved in our town halls and product knowledge sessions. We definitely want our Revoluters to feel positive about our culture and to feel included. Please let the people team know if you feel there are mistakes being made. Thank you for all that you do at Revolut. We wish you well.

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.

Highly challenging culture that values your work

Cons

Not for everyone. There is a high bar in performance and all are expected to excel at work.
