Pros

Good people, good pay but nowhere near the market value that HR claimed. Working here will be good for your skills and prepare you for the next better opportunity

Cons

New CEO destroys the company's culture, legacy, and company's stock. The remote style has been working very well and he just wants control over employees with his stupid RTO. HR doesn't give a damn about employee's wellbeing like they claim "We care about you" and their RTO QA session was unsympathetic and extremely unclear. Do not join the company now!

Good work life balance, all young people.

Taking away perks that we have had for a long time. Eventually reach your cap as an IC.

Pros

People I worked with and the culture was great, work life balance was fantastic.

Cons

Every year now it layoffs, makes one want to ask a question. Perhaps Criteo needs a better CFO to manage the companies finances. Being every year Criteo is laying people off, yet CFO still remains. Perhaps Criteo needs to look at those who are staying a bit closer.
