      Toxic, stressful, intense

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Steep learning curve, exposure to fast paced industry

      Cons

      Toxic work culture, encourages selfish behaviours. Little collaboration and there's no strategy: it's just aggressive expansions in every direction just hoping that something will work somewhere. Management are focused entirely on enforcing their culture and character rather than developing a customer focused, product driven company. There is no care for employee well being - showing feelings is a sign of weakness. You must be stiff, cold and borderline rude/cruel to succeed. If you have a choice - avoid.

      Thank you for telling us about your experience. Revolut is one of the world's leading fintechs because our people are as brilliant as they are ambitious and love to create inovative products for our customers. Many Revoluters tell us how much they love being part of reinventing how people manage their financial lives. Our ambitious goals require hard work and focus but we never want our success to be at the expense of our people. We encourage people to take breaks and speak to their line managers if things seem to be heading off-course. Our culture is based on listening to and supporting colleagues and that's what led to our company wide hybrid working policy and our introduction of two extra well being days this year. We don't tolerate aggression or rudeness so please consider speaking with our Employee Engagement team if that's your experience so that we can ensure a good work environment for every team. Thank you

      A fantastic place to work, for the right person

      Pros

      I had some mixed feelings about joining Revolut, given some of the negative reviews and press I'd seen, but I'm happy to say that my experience has been overwhelmingly positive! It's unlike any environment I've worked in before (although joining a company during a pandemic is a new experience in itself), and it's probably not for everyone, but I can honestly say that I love it. Positives include: * the chance to work with A-players and be surrounded by smart, dedicated, passionate individuals * an amazing product and a clear vision for shaking up the financial services industry * a flexible working policy * intensely goal-driven but fair: you always know what you need to achieve and are pushed to prioritise and solve big problems * helpful and supportive colleagues and managers * culture and values that inspire me and that I can identify with * a great deal of autonomy to go out and get things done * a truly multicultural workforce and global outlook

      Cons

      I can't say I've come across any real negatives so far, but just a caveat that Revolut is not for everyone. You'll likely feel more at home if you've worked in technology and/or startups before, and perhaps also some international experience, especially in locations where the pace is a bit more hectic than the UK. Other things to note: * it's fast-paced startup and there's a lot to be done as quickly as possible; I haven't felt pressured to work extra hours, but you do need to be careful not to burn out. * the company sometimes suffers from a split personality: on the one hand it's finding its feet in the highly regulated world of finance, but it feels more like an innovative fintech focused almost entirely on building an exceptional product; this sometimes involves putting on different hats, depending on what you're doing * not enough female representation, especially in management (although that's partly to be expected in both finance and technology fields)

      Hello! Thank you for sharing about your experience at length. We're glad you're enjoying our work environment, and that goes to show that you're a solid hire because as you've rightly said, Revolut isn't for everyone. Those who find Revolut to be a great culture fit for themselves will thrive and we're excited to see what you'll achieve! You've brought up a good point about female representation. We know we have a long way to go (the entire finance and tech industries do), and we're keen to increase the diversity of our teams and leadership. We've put in place targets to increase female representation in leadership, and have launched a "Women In Leadership" programme to accelerate progress in this area. Thank you for your commitment, and we wish you the very best!
