Revolut

They pay a lot. The mid-level salary is above the maximum senior bar for some companies.

Open and straightforward management, with very collaborative colleagues.

A multinational environment with a fancy technology stack.

They have GCP, Kotlin, microservices, and so on, which together with Revolut's brand makes it great for CV-driven development.

No red tape.

Learning opportunities and career growth.

For me, other companies offered much more senior positions with concentration on high-level design and some leadership responsibilities. Revolut sees me as a feature builder, working on quite fine-grained tasks, comparing to my previous job. It feels a bit like a downgrade from that point.

There's a non-competition agreement in place; you might want to read it before signing the offer.

It's fast-paced but also chaotic; you might face things like no clear definition of done or similar.

Despite the overall level being quite good, this is not a top pick if you want to see the smartest people around.

Please, mention the non-competition agreement earlier in the interview. It was quite a surprise for me and, to be honest, looks deceptive at this late stage.
