Pros

Great benefits. Awesome office manager in Palo Alto.

Cons

Poor management; everything is run out of Paris so there is a lot of miscommunication. Terrible internal support. They have a rule that says you cannot switch roles until you have worked there for a year

Hi - thank you for your honest feedback. It's important to us so we know where we can focus our efforts. Firstly, glad you like the benefits and are giving our Office Manager a shout out! :) Separately, thanks for raising the concern around everything being run out of Paris. As with every company, some things will always need to be globally compliant whereas in other areas we're trying to develop independence within the regions. This is an area of high importance to us, so we do encourage you to discuss this in more detail with your manager or HR! Finally - the rule on internal transfers is a standard policy most companies have, and it essentially ensures that employees have sufficient time to prove themselves in a role as well as sufficient time to assess the company and the ideal opportunity for themselves before making another career move. Mobility (both local and international!) are an important investment we make, and we constantly have a high % of employees transfering across roles and countries. Hope we can find the right career growth opportunity for you after you've completed your year in your current role! Again - appreciate your feedback and candour, it's important to us so we can continue to improve.

Pros

- Our product - simply put, it works and is well known within our industry & competitors. - Company went public in October 2013; corporate company, but with a start-up like environment/atmosphere. - The ability to have direct impact from day 1, company is still growing - opportunity to work hands-on on new projects and add value from get-go. - Wide open office layout; easy access to executives & managers within the office. - Similar industry standard perks & benefits: 100% of premiums of healthcare are covered, 401(k) matching (US only), phone & travel reimbursement, monthly office parties/happy hour, arcade/recreational room with Ping Pong, beer/keg, etc.. - Excellent work-life balance; depending on your department/job responsibilities/manager you may have the option to work from home some days throughout the week. - Great career opportunities within the company: employees who have been with the company for 1 year are eligible to apply to any Criteo position regardless of location (as long as their experience matches the qualifications/requirements of the position). - Internal company career map is very transparent and allows you to see what opportunities are down the road within each department, along with the requirements and qualifications needed for a promotion/job change.

Cons

- Company headquarters (Central organization) is based in Paris, France which sometimes results in delays when requesting approvals/support/tasks. - Growing pains: as the company continues to grow new policies/procedures/processes are being implemented & existing ones are being fine-tuned.

Hi - thank you for your feedback! Glad to see your overall positive experience at Criteo, we work hard to try and make this the place where employees can grow their careers and have fun along the way. Absolutely take on board your point of company headquarters in Paris, and we're working hard to continue growing the business in the US as fast as possible so we can continue to justify increasing regionalization and autonomy. Thanks again for your feedback!
