Disappointing and Unstructured Onboarding with Poor Leadership Support

Senior account strategist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Criteo has innovative products and talented, collaborative colleagues. The team environment is supportive, and the international exposure is valuable.

Cons

On the downside, onboarding felt unstructured. Training materials arrived late, expectations were unclear, and feedback was inconsistent. Performance evaluation lacked measurable goals and transparency (clear KPIs and OKRs), which made it challenging to understand how to improve.
