Pros

6 month in, and I think it's time to make a review of Criteo. Criteo is overall a very good company. I work as a Sales Manager, in our wonderful Barcelona office. Probably the most amazing view from any office I've ever seen (and I've seen a few). What I really enjoy about Criteo is how well the product actually works. As a Sales Manager, this makes my day-to-day life soo much easier and helps me perform. In previous jobs, it was much more about selling the vision, while here with our super transparent setup, you can't really go wrong. In previous jobs, there has always been some distance between senior manage and the people below. This is definitely not the case here. Super friendly people, who have mostly all started their careers in Criteo, which says a bit about the career opportunities in this company. Besides very friendly people, from all over the world, they company really tries to be creative in their social approach. We're not just talking summer and Christmas parties. Almost every week, there is a social event; that being team activities on the beach, cinema evenings or renting a boat and sail on the ocean. As mentioned previous, the Criteo product is really standing out within re-marketing, which makes it a joy to sell. But Criteo is opening up to new trends and products, that will for sure have an impact in the advertising space for the future. They really make sure to hire quality people, which makes the company really stand out, compared to my previous experiences. It's all about the people, and I think they got this right. The company is growing A LOT, which makes sense, as the product work. I had more inbound my first 14 days, that I had for a whole year in my previous role. So top remarks 6 months in. Hopefully this will only get better.

Cons

Obviously no company is picture perfect, but I do think Criteo is doing something right.

Pros

Smart, hardworking people at the individual contributor level (many of whom are now gone). Little micro-managing, but that’s because everyone’s bandwidth is near 0

Cons

Post–new CEO, the company has descended into complete chaos. There is no transparency around decisions that impact teams and roles. There have been consistent strategy, personnel, and supplier changes with no explanation, accountability, or follow-through. Cons, continued: Employee input and performance do not matter. Decisions feel driven by appeasing BoD and optics rather than results, input and reality. The culture has become a corporate hellscape of: Endless reorganizations with no clear rationale, including layoffs with no reasoning Vague all-hands meetings that avoid real issues, even when directly asked A massive disconnect between the C-suite and day-to-day reality Eroded trust and growing position insecurity Middle managers incentivized to prioritize managing up & executive optics over team advocacy “Return to Office” policy put in place when promised a “Work from Anywhere” position, where the RTO policy differs across employees’ location Little to no growth opportunities despite high performance Under-market average compensation that was justified by locale, “Work from Anywhere”, and flexibility — which was recently rolled back A clear favoritism to those that “talk the talk” vs “performance with numbers”
