      Pros

      Great place to work, smart and dedicated people, the company has created a very fun place to work in with some great ethics and values enabling you to perform at your best. The workplace experience team go above and beyond to ensure they create the best possible environment to work in with loads of team-building activities and social gatherings. This used to be one of the best companies to work for. It's one of the last remaining independent AdTech companies with an amazing reputation in the industry. It still has great potential if management manages to steer the boat around and go over recent hurdles.

      Cons

      Things have changed over the course of 2018. Dramatically. No clear vision, strategy, or direction. As a result, many great and dedicated employees, including key and senior management, have left the company across all divisions. Due to the recent changes, politics have found their way in, leaving little room for growth to non-politicians (promotions of the same employees every 6 months, promotions of people from specific offices, etc).

      Firstly, thank you so much for taking the time to submit your honest feedback. We are proud that our strong values have created an environment where employees can perform at their best. It's true that we've been going through a period of transition and transformation and we were excited to share Criteo's five year vision with all employees at our Kick-Off in January. We are taking more deliberate steps to action the feedback we receive in the annual employee and manager surveys, including refreshing our existing programmes and launching new improved training for all managers. We look forward to sharing the journey with you in 2019.

      Pros

      The team. You will work with a group of talented individuals. Leadership nowadays isn't as strong as it was in the past.

      Cons

      The leadership team. Criteo grew up fast, as such, there are directors and leaders that bring little benefit to the organization.

      Pros

      My experience with Criteo Barcelona isn't perfect, but it's by far the best company I've worked for. Yes we can improve things, but seriously for such a recent and fast growing company I'm quite amazed about what we're able to achieve. Criteo cares about people. Reading some comments make me feel uncomfortable, specially people say being French is a requirement to be promoted. The fact is ; your nationality doesn't matter. Yes, you can be French and lead another market, exactly as you can be Dutch and lead UK. Or Italian and lead Spain.... We have so many examples ! Criteo is a French company, so it used to be almost 100% French some years ago. The French employees who started 5 years ago and helped structure the huge growth are naturally in managerial positions now. I don't think there's any French conspiracy here :-) Work on your skills, be patient, be constructive. Criteo rewards hard work and maturity. Sometimes you need to be patient and wait for the opportunity to come. Focus on your skills, focus on what you can improve around you. You'll be rewarded.

      Cons

      Criteo is a Public company so yes numbers matters a lot and can create some level of pressure, specially on Sales people. Managers are stretched with important teams (a team leader can have 8 persons in his team + many strategic projects, which can make it hard to find the right balance). Some people with unrealistic expectations or lack of maturity not appreciative of all that is done for them (massage, breakfast, social events, coffee, free snacks, amazing office, promotion or lateral moves opportunities...)
