Pros

- Good office. - Good product. - Good brand. - Clear regarding their culture during the recruitment process.

Cons

- All positive comments here are fake, created by HR. - Most employees are gone within the first 6 months. - No work-life balance. You will work overtime during the week, weekends and even holidays (and they will still fire you). - All wired articles are true. The culture did not change a bit. The same "A players" are still ruling and managing the company. But now the so called "A players" have limited their fury to the performance reviews and backstabbing. - Micro-management: everything is measured. - Quartely performance reviews are just used to fire people the "A players" dislike, most of the times unfairly. - High turnover of people, which leads to projects getting closed and people getting fired. - Extremely political. You must submit to the "A players" rules in order to be successful. There are junior people leading projects and teams just because they befriended their managers, not due to their expertise or background. - Most managers don't have experience, technical expertise or even leadership skills. - Share options scheme is very unclear and shady. - If you were just hired by Revolut I wish you good fortune (you will need it!) and please watch out for the "A players" in your team.

Pros

-Worked with smart and passionate people, a bunch of GO GET EMS & DOERS! -Had really reliable team members, everyone was easy to collaborate with. -Recruiting teams were able to get tools or whatever they needed without a huge budget restriction.

Cons

-The executive leadership team at HQ are deep into the weeds with recruiting and building culture and they shouldn't be because they are really bad at it. -This company doesn't give an autonomy and accountability to the people they hire. -One of the leadership team members admitted that he doesn't like to hire women for leadership roles because they are wired differently. It's ironic because without any woman in the leadership team, they seem to lack a whole lot of emotional intelligence, which in studies it is proven that women have this edge over men. -What boggles my mind is that this executive has been blatantly misogynistic since he's been hired and hasn't suffered any repercussions from the things he says (to women on Slack), in fact, he's been promoted!

Hi there, thank you for telling us about your experience. We see that you were a Recruiter, so thank you for helping build our team. We're glad that you enjoyed the team you were part of. As you highlight we take recruiting seriously - right from the top of the company. We want to make very clear thta Revolut is an equal opportunities employer and that we are keen to increase the diversity of our leadership. We are proud to have more than 80 nationalities in our workforce and we have targets to improve the proportion of women in our leadership and a “Women in Leadership” programme to try to accelerate progress in this area. Any allegation of misogyny would be investigated and acted on. Again, thank you for your contributions to our teams. We wish you the best in your next role.
