Hi - thanks for sharing your feedback! This is really thoughtful feedback, especially with regard to the middle management and bureaucracy. This is a topic we're actively trying to address, and appreciate your perspective on this. In terms of career growth within the US itself, this is something that will automatically come along with the increased growth in our region, and we are optimistic that this is an area that will self-correct along with business growth. The trends are all in the right direction! Appreciate your honest feedback, thank you.

Pros

Technology is the real deal - no smoke and mirrors or marketing tricks. The product works very well at a global scale. This makes Criteo a pleasure to work for. For the most part, the employees are excited about working at this company and there is strong loyalty and pride working here. It's possible to feel connected globally and to senior management in spite of our size. The caliber of the employees is very high - we work with smart people and there are strong standards - I'm always impressed by my coworkers and feel like I'm working with some of the best in the industry.

Cons

We've had a flux of management turnover, unclear career paths and overall personnel instability. There has also been some difficulty in having grown so fast without the necessary infrastructure in place. Our middle management demographic is too large such that its created a layer of bureaucracy, with too many cooks in the kitchen and everyone fighting for credit and justifying their roles.

Hi - thanks for your comments and great feedback, appreciate it! Definitely take on board the point of the growing management as we continue to grow our size, and we'll work on a way to ensure that this doesn't create bureaucratic inefficiency in our operational day to day! Appreciate the feedback.
