Pros

- Competetive salary - Outstanding shares package - Strongest experts / people surrounding you - Ambitious company plans to conquer the world

Cons

- Work life balance might suffer IF you accept it and IF you choose to overcontribute. - This is the company where you can't be a mediocre, it is hard cause you don't wont feel like a part of a bigger game that everyone is involved in. - You have to figure out a lot on your own and be initiative because there are littely processes in place - hence tremendous opportunity to exercise your skills - and you have to take ownership of many things if you want changes to come. Not that many people have this kind of stamina.

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.
