Pros

My experience here was nothing but positive. I was at the company for 3 glorious years and, in hindsight, attribute my happiness to the effectiveness of my manager. My manager had TRUST in me. My manager asked me what I needed to better do my job - whether is was more resources, access to a platform, or a day OFF. I was very very lucky to have such an amazing manager. Under this sort of management, I turned nothing into a LOT. Millions in incremental revenue....and all the praise and recognition that one could hope for. I had an amazing experience here. I worked my a global role and could not have asked for a better group of people to work with...and from all over the world. This was truly my favorite aspect. That I built long last relationships in places like India, South Korea and Spain.

Cons

Not everyone was as lucky as me, though. I know a ton of really talented people who left because their managers were terrible. I wish HR was more in-tune and responsive to this...I’m not trying to be critical but if HR paid attention to this, there are certain leaders that would have be ousted a lot sooner. HR asks for feedback on a regular basis so either they don’t take appropriate action based on complaints, or official complaints aren’t being filed/documented.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences of working at Criteo. I’m glad to hear that you had such a positive relationship with your manager. This is certainly the example we love to hear. Equally, your honest feedback regarding our Engagement Survey and Manager Capability is much appreciated. We are taking more deliberate steps to action the feedback we receive in the annual survey, including refreshing our existing programmes and launching new improved training for all our managers in 2019. I thank you for the 3 years you were on our team and I'm happy for you to contact me with any further feedback. Denis Collin, EVP People.

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.
