Pros

interesting projects, possibility to take as much initiative as one would want, extremely motivated and talented colleagues, possibility to reinvent bikes

Cons

necessity to reinvent bikes, depending on the team the work stile can be agile over the edge to the point of being chaotic and unpredictable, Revolut getting big enough for the processes to start taking noticeable amount of time, everyone works 24/7 so hard to have an 8-hour day without feeling the peer pressure

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.
