      Nice company with some structural inefficiencies

      Pros

      Criteo is a fine place to work, I'm fairly confident it is the best tech company to work for in France. Criteo's culture is very performance driven, and engineers apply all the best practices in the field. Criteo also has a lot data to work with, which is a data scientist and machine learning practitioner's dream. Technologies used are fairly top notch, Criteo has its own data centers, its own SRE and Infra departments, and many tools to ease the development and deployment processes that rival those of cloud platforms.

      Cons

      The company is somewhat stuck in a limbo between a small startup and a big tech company. It's engineering department is concentrated in France (since it's SF branch has closed), which makes it rather close-minded and less open to the adoption of new and state-of-the-art technologies. The development processes are fairly slow moving, which have made the company fail to diversify its product portfolio in recent years (although it's going a bit better lately). There are several structural inefficiencies, starting from a very big pile of technical debt, that you need to circumvent and adapt to in order to make new products and produce value (it takes effort but it's possible).

      High Burn Out - Decelerating Fast

      Fp&a

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are incredibly smart, and care so much to make things work/grow. Teaming up with Ax, Sales, etc was the best part of working for Criteo. If you can handle ambiguity, you’ll thrive here.

      Cons

      Not a lot of career advancement (even before COVID). As the business grew, they didn’t invest in supporting departments which left FP&A or SalesOps working night/weekends frequently without relief. You’ll work at 120% capacity your entire time there. The thrill will be enough at first, but burn out is inevitable.
