Pros

In Barcelona they pay a bit more than the average salary is

Cons

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.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We appreciate you sharing your personal experience at Criteo. The People and Leadership teams continuously work on different initiatives to develop our managers and to ensure a fair workplace. In a commercial organization, it is true that targets are important, but we strive to focus first and foremost on our people. We continue to look at ways we can improve manager experience for our team members to build a culture where team members can be open and express their perspective. We have seen measurable improvements to both employee engagement and leader to employee engagement in the last 9 months. I’d welcome the opportunity to discuss the issues you are experiencing in more detail in confidence. Please feel free send me an email directly to s.chindalur@criteo.com Thank you.

Pros

-great people -free breakfast -amazing health benefits -good product

Cons

Well where do I begin? Two years ago Criteo was a different company. The company truly embraced "go go go" and you felt that you work for a true innovative and strong organized company. Now.... The company has abandoned their "quality over quantity" policy and have changed it to "quantity over quality". Hey, if you can hire people for the half price just because they've barely tasted the corporate world.. why not? Want a promotion? you better be best friends with the manager, oh and make sure you start a bunch of meaningless projects so that upper management sees you. Want a senior position? Got a french passport? Hey, let's just raise everyone's target when over 50% of sales reps can't reach their current target.. makes sense, right? The company begs for feedback from their employees almost on a weekly basis. you'd expect things to change and for the feedback to be taken seriously, right? WRONG.

Thanks for taking the time to give us your feedback. Criteo recognises that we have amazing talent who have helped to drive us to where we are today. We also continue to transform the business, and are excited about 2019 as we have a clear vision for the future of Criteo, as well as within Mid-Market. The Leadership team in Barcelona, as well as our People team, continuously work to implement initiatives based on employee feedback through company-wide surveys as well as through local listening sessions. We strive to roll out new programs tailored to improve our team members’ experience based on that feedback. We also work to ensure opportunities for internal roles are fair and open to all, and that we have diverse perspectives at all levels at Criteo. If you’d like to discuss your feedback in more detail, I will absolutely make time to listen. You can send me an email directly to s.chindalur@criteo.com. Thank you.
