Pros

- great way to start your career/make huge knowledge jumps - amazing office view - you will be valuable for a lot of other companies - surrounded by very talented people - great office view Biggest pro: Found the love of my life

Cons

- taking away more and more responsibility - highly talented people are put into boxes - love for detail gets totally lost - a lot of pressure due to share prices - past achievements are worth nothing - bad communication between departments - totally understaffed - salary is high for Spain but nothing compared to what people would earn with international experience, tech background and multiple languages in other countries

Good work life balance, all young people.

Cons

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.

Through the way they connect, build each other up, and impact one another, people make Criteo into a unique workplace every day, and we’re glad it's something you appreciated during your time with us. When it comes to our company’s future, decisions are never arbitrary but made with shared responsibility, maximum transparency, and bearing our long-term organizational health in mind. Yet, receiving open feedback, whether positive or not, is always valuable to us, so thank you for sharing yours. We wish you the best for what comes next.
