Pros

-Recruitment Process is professional -International environment -Salary is OK for Barcelona

Cons

-Everything is only number-oriented... You are your target, only. You are not treated more than it. -Overachievers are punished. How? capping, changing compensation plan within the quarter. -Management level is not human-centric at all... Focusing only on cost-saving, no promotion cycles anymore, offices are still closed for more than a year, etc... -No coaching & career development patch & customized training for employees -Leaders are not visionary. There is miscommunication in so many parts of the company. You can't learn anything from your leader for your personal growth. -Listening sessions are useless. Your voice is not heard within the company if you are not at the mid-level. -I won't talk about the Criteo products deeply, but the all industry in danger right now. -Everything is going worse day by day...

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. ​ We believe that everyone at Criteo bring their unique talent and experience into work, encouraging Criteos to share their stories, whereas on the Criteo Blog or during specific internal events.​ Offices have stayed closed as long as we weren't sure this was 100% safe for our employees to return: right from the beginning of COVID we implemented a partnership with external mental health professionals, including 5 sponsored psychological sessions, to support Criteos for who the remote situation was particularly hard to deal with. ​ We are sorry to hear that you felt treated like a number. It's really far from the experience we want to provide to our employees. We hope you are well and that you found the right place for you now. ​

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.
