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

Many excellent personalities to work with, received serious training on how to approach customers, often more experienced employees from other countries would come over to conduct useful trainings on working techniques. I was very happy with my local team leader.

Cons

Company's culture is all based on expansion. Workload was constantly growing if higher management perceived that we were able to meet requirements. No good work-life balance. CEO was constantly giving a message that only the best players are worthy of being in Revolut's team.

Hi there! Thanks for the review. Revolut is hugely ambitious. We work hard - and fast - to achieve our goals and most of us find that exciting, energising and a lot of fun. It can be challenging but we don't want the pace we work at to pull anyone down and we remind people to make sure they balance work with the rest of life. But we accept that the pace at Revolut might not be right for everyone. Thank you for recognising the work we've put in to build a great product and developing our people. We wish you well in your future career.

Pros

- hot brand (recognizable by other employers) - friendly peers - decent compensation + benefits + biannual bonuses - you can be promoted once per every 12 months - being a part of a game-changing company with a great product - if you will manage here, most likely you will manage everywhere else - diversity and inclusion

Cons

- very limited room for development - micromanagement, literally everywhere - no work-life balance (working 24h including weekends and Bank Holidays) - no space for creativity, employees' only task is to get it done, providing feedback is more for fun than for actual purposes - general atmosphere in the company and constant pressure (high staff turnover)

HI! Thank you for taking time to write us a review. We want our Revoluters to do their best work with us, so thank you for recognising the benefits that we have worked so hard to make happen. We’re proud of our ambition, and we know our goals demand a lot from people - but that should never have a negative impact on our employees. We know that the pace at Revolut isn't for everyone but we're glad that the thousands who stay the course are energised by challenging each other to achieve the best possible outcome. We wish you the best.
