Business Outlook

Pros

+ Revolut moves very fast, there are new features released every few weeks so you get a lot of opportunities to do something new & learn. + Work here is very satisfying as you get to do stuff that's used by millions of user and it's delivered to them every two weeks. + You can participate in the recruitment process which can improve your soft and technical skills from a different direction + Base salary above average + Work is very well organized as you know what's expected from you and when you have to deliver something, the lower management is doing a good job at keeping everything tight. Although that might be just my case, a lot of people have crappy managers who don't know how to manage and sometimes are bullies.

Cons

- No bonus, there are performance reviews and if you did a good job then the only thing you get are options for stocks which are worth nothing. Ideally you should be able to sell them during funding rounds which happen every few years but it's not possible as only small subset of people are allowed to sell a small subset of their stocks thanks to very picky conditions. Most of the people have never turned their stocks into something valuable hence there's no bonus and no appreciation of your good work. - If you'd like to learn something new that you don't already do at work then there are no opportunities as company doesn't provide any access to learning platforms/ebooks so people can't step up their game - Management thinks that that adding a congrats bot will solve the problem of not being rewarded for great work
