Pros

- No office politics or games, we know that if we do engage it those - it will hinder us and deprive us of opportunities moving forward. - Everyone is accountable and takes ownership of their actions - People are inclusive and diverse, and accepting of one another. - Beyond work, we can be quite a fun group of people. We still get things done man. - Fundamentally, we are all a team player. Though we might be strong or smart individually, we are all respectful of one another. - We encourage everyone to grow and develop as a professional in their own career. Having the space to struggle, and make honest mistakes, and learning from it is part of the process we recognised.

Cons

- Things can be ambiguous, given the startup nature. But this can provide a learning opportunity for you to take on different things, and solve various problems.

Thanks for your review! We appreciate your taking the time to let us know how we're doing. We know that hyperscaling sometimes comes with a bit of chaos, but the people who can roll with the punches are the ones that will help us achieve our vision. We still want to keep the startup hunger, though we recognise that we're taking on more responsibilities. It's all about the Day One mentality! As our biggest resource for innovation and fresh ideas, we'll keep listening to our people. Let's get it done!

Pros

- Cool office space. - Many people I've meet were very nice, knowledgeable, and humble. - No one tells you how to do things, as long as you get things done (this also proved to be one of their issues).

Cons

- Arrogant management. - Probation period goals poorly defined and most of the times not measurable. - Lack of support or direction during your probation period. You'll have to constantly chase your line manager to give you feedback and luckily he/she won't be too busy. - No one will tell you whether you passed the probation period or not, even though they are supposed to give you a written confirmation. - Blame culture. Instead of focusing on solutions and fixing problems or educating people, some senior engineers / managers prefer to just make fun of other people's lack of skills or point fingers. - People are treated as disposable and will be let go during their probation period for no reason. With luck, they will tell you "you're not a good fit for the company". - They tell you that no one forces you to work long hours, but the tasks they give you during your probation force you to work many extra hours and during the weekend. - Job spec advertised completely different from the actual work you'll do (given the speed at which the company is growing, you'll end up doing really crappy work that other people who've been longer in the company don't want to do).

Thank you for your honest review. We appreciate your taking the time to give us thorough feedback. We want you assure you that your probation experience was not representative of what we expect from our processes. We want to ensure that all our people are properly informed and know what's expected of them. We're working on addressing our probation period practices to ensure that everyone is fully informed on what is expected of them - both managers and employees. As we're hyperscaling, there might be periods where we ask our people to work a little harder to make sure that we get it done. While it might be difficult at times, our Revolut community is always there to support you. We try to ensure that all the work you do is aligned to your profile and the job description you applied for, but it might sometimes happen that you need to support us as we're hiring to fill gaps. We'll continue to provide support and training to our managers to make sure that they're getting the best from our people, and helping them thrive at work. If you have specific feedback about what we can improve in this area, please get in touch with us directly. We're committed to ensuring that everyone thrives in their work at Revolut. We assure you that your experience does not reflect the vast majority of our staff, and we'll continue to improve with your feedback.
