Pros
- work from home benefit due to covid - annual leaves are on par with tech industry - pretty good medical coverage that covers your family too
Cons
Gone are Criteo's glorious days where business in APAC is thriving and quarterly kpi consistently exceeds 100%. Now, there is only poor leadership and Senior Management are there to tell wonderful stories about their past and achievement but make no to little impact on the revenue or business of Criteo. Most senior managers are transferred from the headquarters or other EU countries and have no local context in dealing with local client issues, build relationships with clients and neither are they able to provide good directions on how to tackle challenging problems. The business here has been severely declining over the last 3-4 years (and even more so since covid) with revenue being heavily concentrated in a couple of key clients. Even if new clients are onboarded they are not well-managed leading to high churn rate and extremely slow growth which is worrying. Rounds of reorg and retrenchment is still happening now from what i heard from the existing colleagues who are still around- you'd never know when the next one is coming! If you considering a role in operations, career growth is also stunted due to company's core focus to reduce operating expenses so plans are underway to expand the operation hubs in india so the teams there can service the requests coming from apac offices instead. Leavers from ops tend not to be replaced and filled from india instead. Highly not recommended if you are looking for something stable and have family commitments even though the medical coverage is good. But still a good place to be in if you are jobless...
