Pros

* cool product * ability to work with modern technologies * good salary, but it's not worth it

Cons

* CEO is a lunatic * fear based culture * chaotic roadmap, ever changing requirements, engineers are blamed for it * public shaming on Slack and at meetings * unclear expectations for promotion * overtime is very much expected, and this is being openly communicated as well by the CEO

We object strenuously to the mischaracterisation of Nik with whom our people are thrilled to work. He's driven by the goal of ensuring that we realise our ambition of creating a truly global financial superapp - that will enable our customers to manage all their financial needs in a single place. We don't see the ambition to achieve something that no-one has ever achieved before as a lunacy. We see it as being determined to find and lead brilliant people to deliver what Revolut's customers want, however hard that appears. As he says - a lot - we never settle. Happily there are lots of us who share his ambition and his vision and we hope to find many more who'll love working on exciting ambitious projects and learning from the brilliant people around them as much as we do. Delivering wow.

Pros

Good company perks - deliveroo, free tea coffee snacks, great socials, travel opportunities. Nice individuals. Lots of paid holiday days. Great office location.

Cons

You get lots of paid holiday days because you need it. They work you to the bone, and senior management are very very intense. I've seen people leave meetings with the CEO crying. There was a meeting room with misted glass that everyone used to go into to cry.

Pros

Salary and bonuses average plus I would say. Flexible working policy is good.

Cons

Senior Management don’t have any clue how to manage people. Treating employees as resources, even good salary and bonuses can’t help here. Lack of people and resources, but they still expect you to finish big task with tough deadlines. Don’t accept problems/don’t want to fix, but they know about them. Rush with launching new features, so no time to improve previous. Decision makes in a rush, so mostly everything in MVP stage. Pure backend stack, internal frameworks with a lot of issues. Not interested in your knowledge improvement. Only when it comes to internal framework, but even here a lot of miscommunication and misunderstanding. Everything about speed, not quality. KPI based environment. Toxic environment. You will be told what, how and when you should do, no freedom and flexibility. So if you like challenges and want to try change those things, this is perfect place. But be ready to big resistance and lack of power.
