Pros

- Competitive wage - Plenty of company benefits - New office

Cons

- 24 hour shifts 7 days a week 365 days a year - The way the KPI for the teams are set up do not really reflect the work put in on a given shift - Very hard to provide own process, usually the answer is that the decisions are made higher up - A lot of miscommunication - Lack of team spirit and togetherness

No structure, disorganised and bad culture

Pros

Free soft drinks Deliveroo if working after 7

Cons

The company has absolutely no structure, couldn’t find HR even if they were standing in front of you and mangers don’t actually know how to manage. The culture is basically work until you bleed, working late is normal without paid overtime - 7/8/9pm people still at work. The company is not very diverse. Very clique orientated The excuse of still being a “start up” is absolutely rubbish standard work place processes are not hard to establish. Holidays - 22days which is the lowest I’ve seen. No common sense. No real employee perks. If you don’t fit in to their ‘culture’ you’ll probably get excluded. Could label this one of the worst companies to work for.

Thank you for your review and sorry to hear about your negative experiences. We are aware of what we need to improve about our company and we’re always grateful for any extra feedback. We've learnt the hard way that building a high performing startup requires different skill sets and processes, and that what works for five people doesn't for eighty, eight hundred, or almost two thousand. We are still on a journey, but we’re happy to report on a few things we’ve worked on in the past half year: —Our London HR team is growing in size and expertise, supporting our global expansion. We still have a few roles in the pipeline but we can now cover any potential request within the timeframe of a day. Give them a shout on Slack on drop by their desk at the 3rd floor, there will always be someone there to help you out. —Diversity & Inclusion are among our priorities. The fintech space comes with its own Diversity & Inclusion challenges and, for the past few months we have actively looked at what this means for Revolut. We’ve hired a Diversity and Inclusion Manager to make sure we're on the right track. —In the UK, you’re getting 29 days of annual leave and 1 day off for your birthday, plus all the bank holidays. That amounts to over 38 days of holidays per year, part of our Total Rewards Package. —We’re adding more and more perks every month. For now, you get your free Revolut Metal subscription, free dinners, all day breakfast, conference tickets, work from home days, extended health insurance and more. We would love to hear more about your suggestions on this topic so please plug them into our #london Slack channel, the anonymous Workplace Experience Slack bot REVplaceExperience or the anonymous Employee Engagement Surveys. —We have a new, dedicated Culture & Engagement team, who is leading the design and delivery or a supportive culture where all Revoluters can thrive.

Pros

Location and office is really cool but hey.... so as many other offices and not many companies have a great culture. Revolut definitely doesn't belong to them.

Cons

This is where the fun starts... If you want to work in the company full of arrogant people and never being appreciated on top of super long hours and low pay in comparison to other companies on the market- then go ahead and apply. Just prepare yourself that you will burn out very quickly in the environment like that. If you need any help with your job, prepare yourself for not getting it but the expectations will always stay the same (!). They will always blame you for something that is out of your control. If you do your normal hours 9-6 and you leave at 6, people think that you work part-time. The management team only know how to demotivates their stuff. The company could benefit from many changes but they are not willing to listen (and they are getting rid of people who want to change things) thanks to CEO's vision. It was probably the worst company I was working for and it is a big relief not to be working in such a toxic environment. Fan fact: if you are not a coder or have strong analytical mind or financial background - you are not worth anything. Sounds like fun working for such a company? Not really if you care for your mental health.
