Pros

1. There are many real world challenges to be solved with urgency 2. You get to work on cool stuff from day one 3. Many smart competing colleagues 4. The product is growing every day. So, lot of new opportunities. There are even opportunities which are not yet polished waiting to be discovered.

Cons

1. Lack of internal technical documentation makes it a bit hard to navigate one's way through the huge code base 2. Not all teams use monitoring tools effectively which may lead to delayed discovery of bugs

Hi there! We're so glad to hear that your Revoluter experience has been so positive. We'd recommend running through Confluence to see if the technical documentation you were looking for is already there. Otherwise, your tech lead might be a good person to ask. If you've exhausted both options, perhaps you might want to consider starting some documentation yourself. We're sure your manager will appreciate the proactiveness and help reprioritise some of your other work to make this happen. We wish you well!

Pros

Working at Revolut was one of the most rewarding experiences in my career. Every day brought something new to learn, and I was trusted with meaningful work from the beginning. The pace is fast, but that's exactly what helped me develop my analytical thinking, decision-making, and financial crime investigation skills. I genuinely enjoyed working with my team, they were approachable, knowledgeable, and always willing to help when needed. If you're someone who enjoys solving complex problems, taking ownership, and continuously learning, you'll appreciate the culture here. Looking back, I'm grateful for everything I learned during my time at Revolut.

Cons

The probation period can be quite challenging because the expectations are high from the start. There is a lot to learn in a relatively short period, and it can feel a little overwhelming initially. That said, once you adapt to the pace and understand the processes, it becomes much more manageable and rewarding.

Highly challenging culture that values your work

Cons

Not for everyone. There is a high bar in performance and all are expected to excel at work.
