Pros

Overview: People, atmosphere, internationality, chances to learn and develop. Good work-life balance. You'll learn loads and have the time of your life while living in a great climate in a great city. Highly recommended. Development: Lots of training. 2 weeks of training for all new hires with plenty of follow up trainings and quarterly training 'menu'. Very impressed with the training managers. Chance for lots of feedback and improvement in working style. DISC training etc helps you get to know yourself and others much better and adapt your working style to be most effective with different personality types. Eye-opening for many people! Managers: Generally, very good managers who don't micro-manage and care about the individuals in their teams. The sun shines out of my direct managers and I feel trusted, challenged and valued. Many people here who have done Erasmus programs before will tell you it feels the same. Very international, meeting so many people from a wide range of backgrounds and countries. Amazing for getting to know a large network of people who are truly more friends than colleagues.

Cons

As the company is still growing and evolving very fast, sometimes things slip through the cracks. This could be in the form of targets that don't seem to fit the market, wide differences between teams, non-sustainable workloads for some, who have to pick up the slack when people leave, or ambitious growth goals haven't been properly planned for.

Hello and thank you so much for taking the time to submit your review. We agree, it's important to stay agile even as we continue to grow. The start-up mentality of 'no fear' is still at the heart of Criteo's culture.

Pros

Working for Criteo offers plenty of Pros. I would say the biggest and most important pro would be the Criteo team and Culture. There is a real culture of getting things done. If you have an idea you normally get the freedom to actually try this out, or set this up. The Barcelona office consist of a lot of young, highly motivated people. This brings an incredible energy with it and makes it a lot of fun to go to work every day. The teams are also quite close, so there are yoga sessions in the summer, beach volleyball evenings and amazing Friday afternoon drinks. The other Pros are related to the work itself. It is often quite challenging and I have learned a lot during the 1 ½ years of working here. Even though the work is challenging, we do get the tools to get the best out of it. We have an amazing training team who supply us with work and non-work related skills.

Cons

As you can read in the Pros section, there is a go-get attitude across all levels of the company. So, this has the consequence that Criteo is unstructured in its processes’. Couple this with a fast paced market and quickly adapting company; it results in a lack of structure (and a bit of a start-up vibe). This could be a challenge if you are used to working in a more traditional market or company.
