Monzo Bank

IF INANIMATE OFFICE OBJECTS HAD RELATIONSHIPS: * meeting room 1 and meeting room 2 are a couple  * the pink highlighter and the blue highlighter just got engaged  * the fruit basket and the biscuit jar are in a forbidden romance  * the whiteboard and the presentation screen are frenemies * the oat milk and the cow’s milk in the fridge are enemies * the revolving doors and the printer are allies and they’re conspiring against you

By 10:30AM on Monday you’ve either: gone to the gym, done 8,000 steps, eaten a nutritious breakfast, made a packed lunch, cycled to the office and smashed through half of your to-do list OR just about woken up 

Before autumn well and truly arrived, we celebrated a stunning summer of Pride this year at Monzo! 🏳️🌈 Here’s a few things we got up to: * Pride Marches – To the people who saw us march at Cardiff and London Pride and waved their Monzo cards at us, thank you! And to the people who shouted “thank you for my free Greggs,” you’re welcome 😂 Everyone including our CEO was buzzing to be there, proudly wearing our custom designed t-shirts. Our Monzo Pride merch raised £800 which we donated to Stonewall Housing. * Disability Pride – We shared all the ways we help to support our people, like our flexible working requests, occupational health assessments, referrals and more. * LGBTQ+ money – Along with WAVE, we hosted a discussion about the unique financial challenges our community faces and how Monzo could better serve those needs. Panellists shared personal stories that resonated deeply, reminding us that financial inclusion is essential to true equality. * Special guests - we were honoured to welcome a rainbow of speakers to the office including Elektra Fence from Ru Paul’s Drag Race. Big shoutout to Pop’n’Olly, the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ educational resource for primary-aged children for an inspiring talk at our London HQ. And it doesn’t stop here! Pride is more than a moment, it’s a movement, and we’ll continue working, learning, and growing, helping everyone belong, all year round.

Happy "It’s October 3rd" Day to everyone who celebrates 

POV: THAT ONE PERSON IN THE OFFICE WHO'S OBSESSED WITH OCTOBER - their desktop background is something spooky (and lowkey scaring everyone) - they keep putting halloween music on in the office (ghouls just wanna have fun) - they’re drinking something pumpkin spiced (every single day without fail) - they already know what their halloween outfit is going to be (it’s moo deng) - their email sign off is literally just ‘boo’

MONZO’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS:

to anyone who said they were looking forward to autumn, is this what you wanted???

DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN THE OFFICE ON PAYDAY: – the online shopper: they’ve got 12 ASOS tabs open and moved their whole wishlist to their basket – the generous one: they’ve already gone for after work drinks and started a tab for the entire team – the sensible one: they’re staying in the office to eat their meal prep while everyone else goes out for a slap up lunch - the bad influence: avoid them if you want any chance of sticking to your budget this month

If Emily in Paris can come up with an entire marketing strategy on the spot then you can think of three fun facts about yourself 😌
