Now for the downside to working for Revolut. I value my experience here as invaluable but a LOT needs to be changed in order for the business to become a global bank.
- The business is always first NEVER the people
- No clear career progression. If this is your first inhouse recruitment experience you will pretty much be used a resourcer
- You'll be given tight deadlines to hire people but it seems nobody ever wants to interview the candidates. This results in employees not turning up to interviews (believe me it happens a lot), interview cancellations last minute and at the worst they will decide they dont want to interview the candidate anymore when they are due to interview the candidate in 5 minutes!
- Be prepared for certain department to ignore you point blank for days on end even with urgent matters.
- Be prepared to work long hours. This isnt a 9 to 5 job, you will find yourself working in the office until all hours to achieve your KPIs
- KPIs are a MUST . If you underperform in one month then it could be the end of your employment
- The business have pretty much hired with short term vision and not long term vision in mind.
- The company leaders lack the right management experience. In each area of the business you will have people that are only leading due to having joined the business in the early days. Just because someone has been in the company longest does NOT mean they should be managing or leading. This is a big issue and shows a complete lack of experienced management
- Fouders Minions. Nobody knows what they do and they cause more trouble than anything else
