Hi there, and thank you for telling us about your Revoluter experience. We're on a big mission to reinvent how the world does money, and we've shown just how much we're capable of as a team in a very short few years. That said, we never want to grow at the expense of our people, and we certainly don't condone office politics. We'd recommend having an open chat with your line manager and/or People team reps to see what we can do so your experience with us becomes more positive. Wishing you well!

Pros

If you turn a blind eye to all the cons and agree to sacrifice your life/work balance and work long hours in a very harsh atmosphere, then you can be promoted quite fast. Good work-from-home policy.

Cons

The culture is very toxic and fear-driven. An employee might be fired without any meaningful explanations the next day after discussing plans for the next few months with his/her manager. Due to high stress at work, from time to time I have sleep disturbances. The most severe one lasted a whole week and eventually resulted in me calling an ambulance. Everyone's obsessed with KPIs, not the real quality of deliverables. Projects are often badly scoped. As an engineer, you're just a "resource" that might be deployed to any project at any time without even asking you. Working long hours is encouraged by the company's culture, although not compulsory. If you're perfect at everything (speed, quality, etc), you'll reach only the "Intermediate" level at a performance review. To get a higher score, you'll need to seriously sacrifice your life/work balance.
