Hello - thank you so much for your feedback! This is really important to us as we continue to work on a build a culture that is the same for everyone no matter what role. Firstly - glad you seem to be having FUN at Criteo! We all spend so much time in the office, having fun matters! It seems like your comments in the "Advice to management" section are related to a specific incident that's taken place. I highly encourage you to talk about this more - either with your leadership, or with HR if that's more comfortable. This kind of feedback is critical to us, and we'd like to make sure we address it straight away! Taking smart risks is a big part of our culture. And sometimes, we know we're just going to get it wrong. And that's part of learning process - but employees shouldn't feel judged or punished for taking a risk. Please do feel free to talk about this in more detail if you are comfortable!
