Pros

Salary higher than the expected

Cons

Working basically non-stop because you’re flooded with tasks from your first team, your second team, ad-hoc requests, quarter goals and all kinds of bugs that must be solved now. Huge discrepancies in communication. Low-level management being humiliated and mobbed on the business meetings by upper management. Requiring job being done in spite of being on a sick leave or on an engagement trip. This place is basically a gulag-styled work camp with no culture whatsoever. It's antihuman.

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.
