Pros

Company culture, professional and personal growth, compensation, annual trip to paris, free snacks!! Every person in the office has been carefully selected resulting in an amazing group of people that make coming into work every day less of a chore.

Cons

Global company so understandably there are communication issues with the central office in Paris. Its the biggest issue I have faced but there is always an open door policy with the central team to discuss issues and collaborate on a resolution.

Pros

Criteo is definitely nothing like any other company I have worked for. I came from a super corporate environment, so it took a little while to get used to some of the perks... ~Amazing, helpful, laid back personalities of fellow employees and management ~Frequent happy hours and social events ~Casual yet professional dress code ~Yearly trip to Paris for a company summit Criteo is an amazing company to work for, some tweaks need to be worked out, but I can honestly say I enjoy coming to work every day. Everyone here works hard and it shows. Having that kind of environment pushes everyone else to go above and beyond.

Cons

The technology is not up-to-par. I don’t have the authority to do a lot of the things I should without going around the red tape. Since this is a French based company, working with the time difference is difficult, it’s hard to get things done. I feel like the offices outside of Paris are just following along in their footsteps without any control. Its not fair when we have issues at hand and need an immediate response. All the decisions come from people who work in a completely different time zone and its impossible to get answers and get your job done. We don’t have a dedicated IT person who knows everything with our systems and programs in the office daily to help us with all the different issues/questions we have. Usually, we wait for Paris for answers, and waiting for Paris is definitely NOT a pleasant experience; especially when they really don’t understand the issue at hand. We are a tech company correct?? Well, we definitely need more knowledgeable technical people helping employees out with daily issues in every office.

Pros

Criteo is a great company to work for and is growing very quickly - now is the time to join! I would say the culture in Boston is better than any at Criteo - the people are awesome. The product is an easy sell because it works. Benefits are covered 100%. Generous amount of vacation days, to include summer days.

Cons

Opportunities to grow within the company are definitely increasing, but we aren't quite there yet. The timeline and expectations are still not very clear, but it is being worked on.
