Pros

Criteo is a strong, established player in ad tech with a recognizable brand and a product that generally works — which makes it easier to open doors and build partnerships. The people are smart, collaborative, and in many cases genuinely supportive, and there’s historically been a strong culture of teamwork and autonomy.

Cons

Decision-making can be slow, and at times internal teams compete for the same business, creating confusion both internally and with clients. As a large global organization, alignment across teams and priorities isn’t always consistent, and visibility into broader strategy can feel limited. Representation of women and people of color in leadership roles has also noticeably declined in recent years.

It is a common priority to ensure we're all growing together and sharing the same vision for the future of our company. Thank you for your contribution to Criteo and wish you the best for what comes next!

Pros

People I worked with and the culture was great, work life balance was fantastic.

Cons

Every year now it layoffs, makes one want to ask a question. Perhaps Criteo needs a better CFO to manage the companies finances. Being every year Criteo is laying people off, yet CFO still remains. Perhaps Criteo needs to look at those who are staying a bit closer.

Through the way they connect, build each other up, and impact one another, people make Criteo into a unique workplace every day, and we’re glad it's something you appreciated during your time with us. When it comes to our company’s future, decisions are never arbitrary but made with shared responsibility, maximum transparency, and bearing our long-term organizational health in mind. Yet, receiving open feedback, whether positive or not, is always valuable to us, so thank you for sharing yours. We wish you the best for what comes next.
