Pros

Criteo hires great people and offers its employees packages that are very competitive. The company cares a lot about its employees and is looking to always improve. The products being released are genuinely good performing product that clients can take advantage of.

Cons

The biggest issue in Criteo are the middle managers. Senior leadership says that they are looking to improve the quality of the managers, but it’s hard to see. Some managers are being rewarded for the hard work their teams are doing while offering zero support and input - It is a shame there is no visible action being taken

Pros

Generally good compensation, individual contributors are generally strong. Excellent office culture

Cons

Management tends to add little value and unwilling to go to bat for their teams. Company lives on a "hero" culture where some employees go above and beyond but are not recognized. Product vision is weak at best Poor performers are allowed to stay for far too long Performance Review process is opaque, political, and arbitrary

Pros

You can learn the basics about online marketing. Great employee experience team working hard to set a higher standard.

Cons

Unstructured environement, when you have several thousands employees you would come to expect a smoother learning path and repositories. All knowledge is stored on confluence with no hierarchy, no source of truths, no rankings of fiability, a bit of a "jungle". Teams work in silo and armwrestling constantly with each other. Unexperienced direct management, very operational, not people-oriented, not motivational nor aspirational. Lack of vision, direction and purpose enablement. Long hours, top down approach, ticketing system, very much a high-volume customer service kind of job, no corporate mobile phone nor monthly telecom subscription included, no reimbursement of broadband at home. No consulting missions, nearly no client-facing time, very limited knowledge of client overall objectives or KPIs by salesreps. Very much a one-size fits all approach to everything. Glitchy HR process with too many steps, tests not reflecting the actual job, which mean they lose a lot of excellent candidates along the process. High attrition rates, focus on hiring junior workforce across the organisation. In need of some topping up of employees yearly stock plans due to huge drop in stock value, which is also impacting yearly events.
