Revolut reviews

Got a job during the coronavirus pandemic: HR works professionally and fast, all documents and devices (laptop, headphones etc.) were delivered to my home; Excellent onboarding process; Unified code conventions for the whole company; Highly professional colleagues: you improve your skills even during (mandatory) code reviews.

In order to thrive at Revolut, culture fit is really important. I see a lot of negative reviews stating bad management, and in a way I think this is highly driven by an extremely direct and no-BS communication style of the senior management. The narrative is highly focused on the need for all to be super performers (aka A players) and if you fall outside of this group, you'll be fired. Now, this sounds pretty rough to most people (and that is in a way understandable) and creates an impression that the company and/or senior management does not care about people. Guess what - other/bigger companies who are better at BSing and sugar coating also do not care, but there is more 'fake empathy' going on there. So I guess this is a question of culture/personality type - do you prefer straightforwardness and blunt communication or would you rather have the same stuff delivered in a corporate sugar coated/brainwash-y way? Each person would have a different response to that :) Based on this here are the Pros: -> moves fast, things get resolved quickly -> smart colleagues, especially in some departments. A players like working with A players -> high performance culture (good for those who are competitive and want to be no.1) -> to the point above, despite that, people are also friendly and backstabbing is not so common (as it is in corporate) -> management is actually here for the win and is relentless to reach its goals (this is good monetary-wise if you stick long term and see the company IPO)
