Pros

- great way to start your career/make huge knowledge jumps - amazing office view - you will be valuable for a lot of other companies - surrounded by very talented people - great office view Biggest pro: Found the love of my life

Cons

- taking away more and more responsibility - highly talented people are put into boxes - love for detail gets totally lost - a lot of pressure due to share prices - past achievements are worth nothing - bad communication between departments - totally understaffed - salary is high for Spain but nothing compared to what people would earn with international experience, tech background and multiple languages in other countries

Still a lot of room for improvement

Pros

- Excellent offices, benefits & social events - Salaries are above BCN standards, but living-costs raises year over year - There are still fun, outgoing, smart and hyper-talented people in Criteo - I never taught of meeting people at work that would become lifetime friends, at Criteo I can say it happens - Founder rejoined as CEO, which sparked new vision & strategy - Internal mobility, after one year you can apply for jobs worldwide - Some positive changes in the management team, but still work to do!

Cons

- Still a lot of improvement for mid to upper-level management in MM. There are still some ego-trippers with no great ideas/leadership skills - No decent career pathing in MM, being promoted isn't challenging at all - Although Criteos core values always embraced `no fear`. Be scared when you're too vocal. You'll likely end up being labeled as a `bad influence`, although you act in the interest of the company - Tremendous employee turnover; people leave out of frustration/boredom/can't cope with management or get let go for not being a cultural fit/making their target (which mostly is the manager's fault of not knowing how to lead a team) - The product itself might not be future proof; Last year Apple was on our back with ITP, and if you read tech articles the future looks grim...

Pros

Criteo hires great people and offers its employees packages that are very competitive. The company cares a lot about its employees and is looking to always improve. The products being released are genuinely good performing product that clients can take advantage of.

Cons

The biggest issue in Criteo are the middle managers. Senior leadership says that they are looking to improve the quality of the managers, but it’s hard to see. Some managers are being rewarded for the hard work their teams are doing while offering zero support and input - It is a shame there is no visible action being taken
