Pros

Amazing team members, at least in Sales, even though we are all individual contributors, we feel very much connected and supportive of each other. Good Covid-19 support in terms of home equipment, mental support. Though it would have been better to just get a stipend to buy the equipment instead of submitting receipts+get compensation for other expenses.

Cons

Disconnected top leadership, many internal blockers for execution, the job involves more moving the needle inside of the company rather than selling the product outside. The leadership likes to have many feedback sessions, where no comments are written by them, no actionable resolution is offered, no accountability or ownership of a problem/solution. The worse part - over-achievement is penalized in the long run, higher targets, and less desire of the management to promote top performers. Instead, mediocre employees that provide bad level of service and underachieve are promoted and/or get lower targets.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. We continue to work to get qualitative and quantitative feedback from our team members through listening sessions and regular engagement and manager surveys to understand how our employees feel. We use this feedback to create tangible action plans to continue to improve the employee experience. Your manager should be including you in discussions about the results of employee surveys - we encourage you to talk to your Manager or your local People Partner if you have further feedback to communicate. We thank you for your hard work over the last 3-4 years and your continued contribution to Criteo's success.

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.
