Pros
- You'll work at a scale you'll rarely see in France - Being mostly bare metal, you'll be in touch with concerns only a few people care about (hardware tweaking, network topologies and so on) - The benefits are great (salary being one of them)
Cons
- It took the company two entire years to realise that cookie based AdTech was going nowhere and that it needed to pivot (since end of 2017, everybody knows that), It may be two late. TDD and some other competitors are far more advanced than Criteo. - The stock price (at less than 20$, there's no way to retain anyone with RSUs). - Besides HookLogic, all acquisitions have been a waste of money. At the same time, constant cost saving measures in the last two years did not only depress people but made delivering projects harder. - LOTS of people left because of the three previous points, which starts a vicious cycle
