      Plenty of better options elsewhere

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Some nice people, selection of good benefits including WFH

      Cons

      Constant cost cutting - operating on a shoe string budget but expecting miracles. Regular rounds of poorly executed redundancies and restructuring over the last few years - if you like security then avoid Incompetent and unqualified leaders, in particular amongst Directors and Senior Directors. Speaking French seems to be the main criteria to get to this level. Lots of talk about being ‘People focused’ but in reality this is not the case. Talent Development and promotion opportunities minimal.

      We are deeply sorry to hear that you didn't feel supported. ​ Our plan to become the world-leading Commerce Media Platform, announced in February 2021, has led to us having to pivot. True it is that the industry is fast-paced, which is also what inspires us to meet the challenge.​ As an acknowledgment for employees' efforts during this time, we gave all Criteos a free rest day and increased our investment into people wellbeing, as we strongly believe that we will not achieve our goals without setting up our people for success.​ Again, we are sorry that you didn't feel that way. The experience you describe is far from what we want to offer. We wish you to find what you're looking for in your new company.​

      Diversity issues and lack of career opportunities

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The biggest advantages are the Salary, compensations and Benefits. So negotiate well your salary because the career opportunities are limited.

      Cons

      It wouldn't be fair no to mention this, but there is some serious diversity issues about the company. With the death of cookies marketing and the big turnover last year, the company is struggling to hire new software engineers.

      Thanks for taking the time to submit your review. We're sorry to read that you have had a negative experience. Regarding your highlight on diversity, we agree that it's a top priority. We have just hired a dedicated, experienced person to head up the D&I program at Criteo and we look forward to this resulting in an even greater breadth of diversity and a stronger sense of inclusion among our employees!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Recruitment Process is professional -International environment -Salary is OK for Barcelona

      Cons

      -Everything is only number-oriented... You are your target, only. You are not treated more than it. -Overachievers are punished. How? capping, changing compensation plan within the quarter. -Management level is not human-centric at all... Focusing only on cost-saving, no promotion cycles anymore, offices are still closed for more than a year, etc... -No coaching & career development patch & customized training for employees -Leaders are not visionary. There is miscommunication in so many parts of the company. You can't learn anything from your leader for your personal growth. -Listening sessions are useless. Your voice is not heard within the company if you are not at the mid-level. -I won't talk about the Criteo products deeply, but the all industry in danger right now. -Everything is going worse day by day...

      Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. ​ We believe that everyone at Criteo bring their unique talent and experience into work, encouraging Criteos to share their stories, whereas on the Criteo Blog or during specific internal events.​ Offices have stayed closed as long as we weren't sure this was 100% safe for our employees to return: right from the beginning of COVID we implemented a partnership with external mental health professionals, including 5 sponsored psychological sessions, to support Criteos for who the remote situation was particularly hard to deal with. ​ We are sorry to hear that you felt treated like a number. It's really far from the experience we want to provide to our employees. We hope you are well and that you found the right place for you now. ​
