Pros

Generous vacation policy and the people I work with are generally pleasant

Cons

Leadership is clueless in how the day to day operations work. In the last 2 years the entire executive team has turned over but the CFO. French leadership doesn't not understand nuances of US market from both a client and talent perspective.

Pros

- International environment full of smart people from many countries, cultures and backgrounds. - Amazing office, cool perks and company events to promote cohesion between colleagues. - Competitive salary regardless of the office location. - Vacation allowance is above the average. Including some volunteer work days off paid by Criteo. - Talent Development, the company is investing massively in training programs for employees to acquire/improve skills and gather/increase knowledge. In-house full-day trainings, Coursera, LinkedIn e-learning. Unreal. - Many opportunities for growth, in a fast-paced environment where the only constant is change, I can observe hard-working employees who listen to feedback and work through it, getting changes to accomplish their career ambitions.

Cons

- Criteo has very ambitious business goals that translate into certain times when the level of pressure is high and it's felt on the employees and the atmosphere. - Due to the massive growth of the Barcelona office over the last 4 years, there are some employees that got promoted to leadership positions while there were not prepared for it.
