      Pros

      Impressive tech stack. Still a good mix of startup spirit and big company: 'No fear' approach on the one hand and all needed resources to try on the other (talents, infrastructure). If a project failed/late/killed - happens, keep moving (no blame/punishment). Proactivity is encouraged and expected: no matter how junior you are, new ideas are welcomed (of course there is a challenge to get them planned). I.e. there is a Hackathon every year which gives the winners an opportunity to work on their projects. Internal mobility: managers try to take into account engineers preferences and help to change the scope if a guy doesn't want to work on the topiс anymore (unfortunately not always possible, but the effort is away bigger than in my previous companies). Also, there is a cross-offices Voyager program: any engineer can join another R&D team for a few weeks to learn new stuff. Diverse environment: >10 nationalities for appx 100 people in the office. Work-life balance: no work during the weekends or late in the evening, flexible working hours (people can shift a bit their schedule when needed, can WFH occasionally; no official WFH policy though). Reasonable management: most managers have regular 1-1s with their direct reports + occasional ones with the rest (i.e. anybody can request a 1-1 with any Director or VP); top management is open for discussions on any topic (even negative anonymous reviews are being discussed in a positive manner: 'lets brainstorm together what we can do better')

      Cons

      Working with HQ in Paris is challenging due to 9 hours difference + lots of technical dependencies (management tries to mitigate it by having isolated projects when possible, but it's still hard). Less variety of projects than in Paris (natural for any non-HQ office and difficult to change). Diving stock price (and no recipe to fix it so far) Quarterly planning is heavy and takes lots of time.

      Pros

      Fun environment and free breakfast.

      Cons

      As a sales manager you might be fired at any minute. You need to work very hard to pass probation but even then the company might not keep you if they don't like you.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback about your time at Criteo. Our Sales Manager roles are challenging and require commitment to be successful, but they’re also exciting and rewarding with learning opportunities. We have a strong ramp-up approach in place to support each individual as they progress through their probation. We are also candid in the conversations we have with team members around their performance throughout this period. We always work to hire Criteos with the skill set to be part of our journey, although there are times when there may be misalignment on performance in role. When this happens we have a dedicated People Experience team that continuously works to ensure we have an objective approach on all people matters, and we always try to do this in the right way. I’d like to hear about your experience in more detail at s.chindalur@criteo.com, so please do reach out. Shruthi Chindalur Regional Managing Director Mid-Market EMEA
