Pros

Full remote policy and nothing more

Cons

1. Internal Competition: highly competitive sales environment with hundreds of reps vying for the same qualified leads. 2. Commission Structure: The commission plan is heavily weighted towards exceeding targets. Reaching full commission requires achieving 3x your quota, with no base or guaranteed bonus structure when you reach the 100% of your target. 3. Work Overload: The role encompasses a wide range of responsibilities beyond core account executive role. You are expected to perform SDR duties, client onboarding, and ongoing customer support. 3. KPI-Driven Culture: The company prioritizes meeting KPIs above all else. This lead to a micromanaging environment where focus is placed on metrics over fostering positive client relationships. 4. High Turnover: unstable work environment with a high rate of employee turnover, I've seen hundreds of people leaving or been fired.

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

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