There's almost no content in this post. It mostly says, "We got better, we started doing 360s, and we're hiring a head of culture."
It doesn't even seem like it was prepped by a PR firm as I would've expected, because a PR firm probably would've made the tone sound a lot more regretful and sincere. That's actually good -- I hate obvious PR responses -- but this is still pretty strange.
If I were considering a job with Revolut, I would consider this post to be a confirmation of the article it's responding to and not much else.
> We've introduced new 360 performance reviews to make them more fair and transparent.
Hopefully they took into account various studies that have shown that typical 360 reviews can damage morale and be pretty unfair.
Other companies seem to be getting rid of them these days, like Adobe famously did.
I felt like this article was describing a company that has nothing to do with Revolut. We have never been told to work late hours or weekends, for example.

Just out of curiosity, what would have convinced you to consider a job with Revolut?
I'd never consider working there for reasons that are totally unrelated to the company itself and the article about its culture.
I have my own business and don't think I'm ready to go back to being an employee yet.
Makes sense, thanks!
Hi, Data Engineer from Revolut here. Happy to answer questions on how it feels to work here, how things work, and technology stack we use.
Opinions my own.
What do you like about working at Revolut, that you hope to experience at your next company?
In the context of engineering, the coolest thing is probably the absolute freedom in experimenting with new tools and technologies.
How did you feel when you were reading the original article about Revolut's culture?
