Pros

If you think fast, you'll be okay. I see people leaving at 6 pm not because they are lazy but because they actually work and get stuff done very effectively. 1. The company tries to structure everything - there is a very deep and full confluence wiki that really helps to get context around every initiative. 2. There is a thorough system in place to help resolve ANY issue an employee might have. Even if you've relocated to Dubai and need new ergonomic equipment. They got you covered. 3. Relocation is incredible - everything is taken care of. Tickets, work permit, apartment, insurance, etc. 4. Teams are incredibly efficient and everyone is VERY friendly. Every person I interacted with does their best to make sure you got help and clear answer to your question. No bs and beating around the bush. Drastic positive contrast with my previous firm (a top ecommerce player in CIS) where people would waste workdays without getting anything done. Really like the healthy work culture Revolut has created. I don't agree with people saying there is no proper management - roadmaps are built and approved every quarter. That means, every team knows what, why and when they're doing. This gives a lot of clarity in terms of management and overall purpose.

Cons

If you're lazy or haven't work in a fast-paced environment yet, you'll find it difficult to adapt.

Hello, Thank you for your review. Revolut is known for its Never Settle and Get it Done values, which are two things that draw many people to the company, along with its fast-paced, innovative environment. We want to encourage people to thrive on these values, while also maintaining a healthy work/life balance, being aware of the signs of burnout, and looking after their own wellbeing. We believe that clear performance expectations help us all focus on the same goals, and to direct support where it's needed. KPIs are discussed and agreed between line managers and employees, to make sure we’re all aligned. We take all feedback seriously, and we're constantly working on making Revolut a great place to work. By intently listening to our employees we've birthed new programs: Speed Mentoring, Yes You Can Program and just recently RevManager Hub. Thanks to these initiatives we will make sure our managers are better prepared for their work. We appreciate all that you've done, and wish you well in your next role. We wish you the best.

Pros

1) Ok-ish salary based on the minimum salary in Romania| 2) 32 Holiday days 3) A lot of Training available

Cons

1) Toxic Work environment based on unreal KPI's 2) Performance Review every 3 months which makes you feel like you are on probation every 3 months never knowing how it's gonna be 3)Poor upper management 4)They would rather hire people who are not experienced in order to pay less than keep the quality people and pay them 5-15% more or even adapting the salary based on the inflation 5) Micro-managing to the moon 6)The majority of people who I've worked along with stated that within the 6 months of starting they already feel the burnout. 7)There is no such thing as a *Welcome package* for the people who work remotely and the additional equipment(2nd monitor/keyboard/mouse) is either never going to be delivered, either delivered broken either delivered after 7-10 months. 8)The career path is unreal and you can get stuck in a position if not in good terms with your TL and other upper management regardless of your performance| 9)Lack of transparency and team work(if team work is available everyone will be on their own scared to not say something wrong)
