Pros

Honestly you rarely find a company that truly cares about its people and culture and invests in their development. Criteo is a unique company and quite honestly even the people internally don't sometimes see what a good thing they have.

Cons

Lack of opportunities for teams to travel to meet is my only feedback, but then sustainability is a critical company priority and reducing carbon footprint is important too.

We are glad you feel part of a caring and supportive company at Criteo. As we strive to make our workplace inclusive to ensure everyone feels welcome, it is rewarding to get such positive feedback. Environmental sustainability has indeed become an important priority over the years, so we try our best to reduce carbon emissions as much as we can, hence the less frequent travel opportunities you are refering to. Thanks again for being part of our journey! We are delighted to share yours!

Overall a positive experience, but sudden layoff

Pros

I loved the collaborative atmosphere of my team and the innovative projects we worked on. The company offered excellent benefits, including healthcare and flexible working hours, which contributed to a good work-life balance.

Cons

Unfortunately, I was laid off unexpectedly in Spring 2024. The entire process felt abrupt, as I was given just 24 hours to hand over my projects and say goodbye to colleagues. However, the layoff package was generous, which helped ease the transition despite the suddenness. While the experience was positive overall, the unexpected nature of the layoff left me feeling unprepared.

Even though we are trying our best to navigate this delicate terrain, letting people go is always a painful decision and we regret you felt a bit blind-sighted by the sudden way it happened. Thank you for sharing it openly though; it will help us improve how we do things in the future. We are glad you enjoyed your time at Criteo and thank you for your contribution! We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
