      Slow to execute and adapt/No accountability

      Sales leadership
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very supportive business over the pandemic and shared general care for employee well being

      Cons

      Where to begin? There is an overwhelming sense of arrogance with internal leaders that Criteo knows best and has been slow or even unwilling to adapt quick enough to the competitive/market dynamics. There is also a significant lack of accountability across teams that creates a frustrating internal and external experience when troubleshooting for clients is needed. Rewarding mediocrity is also the norm which causes further frustration . Very limited senior support for large and meaningful new business engagement (no top to top engagement to acquire large scale clients). After losing a number of deals there appears to be a slight wake up on this point though. Some leaders do not have a strong understanding of the needs of a global business and approach clients with antiquated and non scalable methods that are leaving clients unhappy. There has been high attrition over the past few months which will continue as there has been no desire to address the causes. Some junior people are moving into senior roles quickly on account of this and management has a tendency to nickel and dime on promotions from a salary perspective.

      Terrible USA culture and management by fear

      Sales
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get good connections from all over the place as Barcelona office is a hub for several european countries. And the city is nice. Salary was OK but comission model too complicted

      Cons

      They lead with fear and people were fired on the spot after QBR. I believe it's because managers were young too and had no training. So a lot of micromanagement. The company either greatly exaggerated or lied about the product making it hard to sell.

      Reaching your targets isn't as important

      Account strategist
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great employees (excluding management) you can learn from. Dynamic and independent way of working. Salary is OK compared to other companies in Barcelona.

      Cons

      Most of the management have grown internally very fast and you can feel the lack of knowledge on the industry and also of experiences in other cultures and ways of working. You also achieve more recognitions when you can write down your name in projects. It doesn't really matter the impact of these but you must have your name there to grow. Overachieving targets weights much less compared to internal "visibility"...
