Thank you for writing us a review. Revolut has grown tremendously in the past few years. We’re proud of our ambition. We know our goals can demand a lot - but we never want this to have a negative impact on our employees. Like many fast-growth companies, things move rapidly and that can be challenging and might not suit everyone. We're constantly trying to create the best Revolut experience for our people and listen to concerns if they're raised. Revolut is strongly committed to fostering diversity including developing more women leaders. We are proud to have more than 80 nationalities in our workforce and we run events aimed at fostering greater inclusion. We want working at Revolut to be rewarding in every way. Our rewards and share schemes were designed with the expert external advice to enable employees to share in Revolut's future success tax efficiently. You can find details in Confluence or by raising an HR ticket. We're keen to hearing your suggestions directly so please do get in touch through Revolut Voice, or through HR. Thank you.

Pros

Growing on the day and night work of its people, nice business outlook which makes our executives and company rich.

Cons

Toxic company that pays below the market while expecting 10x more commitment on the employees’ side. The “senior” managers don’t do much while using every single underpaid resource under them to accomplish their goals. There is a huge discrepancy between the compensation and benefits available to the employees in Poland vs. what they give to their employees in London - in terms of sign on bonuses and performance bonuses. Especially if you are working for Customer Support or FinCrime Services departments, you are by default inferior. Targets are very challenging and have not been revised for years. No flexibility in work or sense of job security - if you perform Average minus as they call it, you’re really close to getting fired. Heads of the Departments earning two or three times more than managers simply ignore what’s happening and enjoy their lovely, 8-10 hour daily work lives. Find another company where you would be valued beyond words and work for them. Wouldn’t worth dealing even with egos you’ll meet and have to tolerate.

Thank you for your review. We’re sorry that you didn’t enjoy your experience with us. We want Revolut to be a great place to work with a positive culture where everyone feels included. We work hard to create equal and supportive conditions for everyone. Where perks differ between countries it's usually a consequence of different rules and regulations in local labor markets. We listen to our people and try to ensure that all voices are heard - that we are working smartly not just hard so that everyone can get a reasonable balance between work and the rest of life. That’s why we implemented: hybrid working, up to two months working abroad and this year two extra well being days to take when you need them. We are still a very young business, growing fast to meet the needs of our customers. We want to ensure that we support the people who enable us to create great products and support our customers. So we encourage our employees to send their feedback through our internal channels so that we can make Revolut a great place to work. Thank you for your feedback and we wish you success in your future endeavours. Andrii Osipov - Global Head of Compliance Operations

Pros

Fast pace, pioneering product, very smart talent, sophisticated levels of automation with processes, data driven, good compensation package and flexibility in work location.

Cons

Big issue with lack of diversity agenda, aggressive behaviour from senior leadership, lack of trust from senior management/ micromanagement, very high attrition levels, work/life balance, frequent change of company priority and direction and leadership capability of CEO.

Thank you for telling us about your time at Revolut and for recognising some good things about Revolut. Revolut is a fast-growing company that has, in five years, achieved presence in over 30 countries. This was made possible by the ambition and dedication of our amazing Revoluters. We know though that startups aren't for everyone. We're constantly growing and that adds new challenges and it's sometimes hard. We work hard to support Revoluters and it's a shame when it doesn't work out. While our workforce is very diverse we recognise that that is less so as you reach the top and we're endeavouring to change that. We hope you've raised your other concerns through our internal channels as we act on all feedback raised. We wish you the best in your future career.
