      Rotten from the top down

      Pros

      Very strong technology that is known for working well in the industry

      Cons

      This company is rotten from the top down, doesn't actually care for its employees (don't let talk of the benefits fool you) and runs on gossip. Top talent leaves and few people are truly happy. I would not recommend coming to work for this company unless you desperately need a job. There are plenty of other tech companies that are better to work for. Criteo is also known in the industry for having very poor retention. Wish I knew this before I joined.

      Horrible experience

      Pros

      A few nice coworkers (but only a few) and that’s about it.

      Cons

      Literally everything else. Most of the people you’ll work with are incredibly rude and egotistical. Work/life balance non-existent. My personal well-being and health deteriorated significantly due to the crazy workload which included a ton of late nights and weekends, many of which came up unexpectedly due to horrible communication. When I brought up these concerns to my team’s management, they didn’t take them seriously. I also brought up these concerns in the employee engagement surveys which the People team didn’t seem to take seriously either since nothing ever changed. They only seemed even remotely interested in my feedback once I submitted my resignation. This company burns and turns employees like I’ve never seen anywhere else.

      Hello, thanks for taking the time to submit your experience. We are really sorry to hear that you didn't feel supported during your time at Criteo. What you describe here does not reflect at all the experience that we want to offer to our employees. We are strongly convinced that employees wellbeing is a key element of success. We keep investing in various wellbeing initiatives, from having the Workplace team running weekly Feelgood initiatives in all regions, to offering mental health support through an external provider with up to 5 appointments with a Mental Heath professional, while having regular internal campaigns acknowledging the importance of taking breaks. At the end of May, we have been offering a day off to all employees as a reward for their hard work. We hope you are well and wish you all the best for your next professional experience.

      Mostly good but a few bad sticking points

      Pros

      Generally good compensation, individual contributors are generally strong. Excellent office culture

      Cons

      Management tends to add little value and unwilling to go to bat for their teams. Company lives on a "hero" culture where some employees go above and beyond but are not recognized. Product vision is weak at best Poor performers are allowed to stay for far too long Performance Review process is opaque, political, and arbitrary
