Pros

Free Coke, Diet Coke and Coke Zero. Cute dogs around the place. Location...if you like water, although you’ll be too busy to enjoy it.

Cons

Managers are arrogant, lack interpersonal skills and common sense, don’t listen and look to blame everyone but themselves. Bullying and humiliating and demeaning people in meetings is acceptable here. Very cliquey workplace, unpleasant unfriendly people in particular departments, no real diversity and are only paying lip service to such matters. I suspect that has more to do with attracting investors than really caring about the people that work there. Terrible place, don’t do it to yourself. Find somewhere else to work...anywhere else.

Thank you, we appreciate the feedback. Nothing of what you just described can be tolerated, and we as a company are taking steps to make sure that everyone we hire is aligned on our values so that we don’t find ourselves in such situations. This is why we: —Run completely anonymous company-wide engagement surveys and pulse surveys, where you can leave any comments about what’s bothering you. —Have a confidential Whistleblowing complaints forum so that we can investigate and take appropriate action for you for the future and make sure other colleagues won’t share similar negative experiences. —Have our People Operations team work on making sure our values are enticed in all hiring, on-boarding, evaluation and promotion processes, so that we are always clear about what kinds of behaviours we endorse here. —Our new Head of Learning and Development is working on putting together highly detailed managers’ training, that would not only cover the professional aspects of work but also touch on interpersonal skills and expectations we have here. Our working culture continues to evolve and has recently been reinforced with the relaunch of our corporate values. We will be launching our global employee handbook in October so that everyone is aware of key policies relating to code of conduct, anti-bullying and harassment, diversity and inclusion etc. This is part of our “growing up” journey, which is a priority for our CEO and the Board. We’re not perfect, but we absolutely want to be better, and we can only do this with the help of our employees. If you encounter any negative experience, please raise them with HR or use the confidential Whistleblowing complaints forum so that we can investigate and take appropriate action for you for the future and make sure other colleagues won’t share similar negative experiences.

Pros

+ Everyone knows Revolut - easier conversations. + Product is top tier. + Good benefits. + Good on your resume.

Cons

- Poor sales leadership - for a company so successful, very shocked at the low calibre of talent in senior sales roles. But product is so strong and they are not measured on employee retention so impossible for them to fail. - Tech stack minimal. - Large elements of favouritism.
