Criteo reviews

The value for the individual person is going to be lost, it´s all about working as hard as possible without any rewards given - the appreciation regarding the employees is dropping constantly. Communication is not transparent and between the teams we have huge gaps in terms of granting Work from Home or Work from Another Office rules, the allowed days are also dropping constantly without official communication. We also keep bad Team Leads and Managers which are unable to show the needed skills - like communication and empathy. And instead of giving back, Criteo takes even more amenities from us as employees. We get less and less money for Team Events, Client Travels - even our Targets are constantly increasing, what makes it even harder to archieve them and therefore to get our bonus payouts.

*It's all about people - that's how they sell it, but it's ALL ABOUT NUMBERS. You count to generate revenue, otherwise you're not valuable and you're out. *FRENCH OVER ALL! - they promote even French people to Lead UK Market. All Leadership team is French....how strange taking into account that we're talking about an European Hub with many nationalities based in Barcelona, but on the Top, only French people. They speak french in meetings, even if there are people in the room who won't understand the language. Very rude environment. *POLITICS vs. CAPABILITIES - the better you're at politics, the higher you will get. Do not challenge the wrong person, or you will be left out. *RECRUITMENT is a SALES DEPARTMENT - 100000 of promises to attract people from many countries, cash in hand to make it more attractive to end up getting dismissed most of them for not selling. They don't care if you've just relocated from another country, or you're sick, they care if you sell, and this is why the recruitment team doesn't evaluate if you're suitable for the role, they sell you the role so that you can come and make sure they get their bonus. *PEOPLE MANAGEMENT? - WHATS IS THAT? - Top Management Team build all by promotions of (again) french nationalities, with very poor skills. They want to become Managers so that they stop having targets that put you on an Improvement Plan almost every 2 Quarters. The Middle Management Team is more human, but unfortunately, the culture and the Top Management won't support them. *DISMISSALS EVERY DAY - I've seen more dismissals in 1 year than anywhere else in my whole working experience (more than 10 years on the same sector). Specially if you join as Sales Manager, other positions are more lucky on that. Very high attrition. *CRITEO is FOR YOU IF: you LOVE POLITICS, are FRENCH or SPEAK FRENCH, DON'T CARE about TEAM WORK but only about INDIVIDUAL OBJECTIVES, your PRIORITY is MONEY and NOT PEOPLE.
