Pros

I don't know where to start. I have only been working here for a couple of months, and I know I'm still in the honeymoon phase, but this is the best company I have ever worked for. I have worked in startupland for the last 5 years, and it is so wonderful to work for a company that really works. The people are smart and passionate. The core technology is great. The product works for our customers. Compensation is great. Management seems to be making the right decisions at the top, and my immediate management team is awesome. Employees all seem to be on board with the company, loyal and happy. You can really feel that this is a healthy company that is WORKING. We all know that we are on a winning ticket, and it feels so good to be a part of something big that is happening in the industry.

Cons

If you are entrepreneurial, this isn't the place where you will get to run anything (but management is really reasonable - they give you the tools to do your job and let you get on with it). Some of the senior management are a bit hands off for my liking, not bothering to speak to the underlings. Ok, one guy is like that.

Pros

Very strong and modest R&D people Respect for technical people : you won't get stuck if you don't want to become a manager Ability to make a visible difference in many different ways and be congratulated publicly for that Young and fun atmosphere, with lots of events Very humble and accessible cofounders Strong will to identify and kill problems Freedom of speech : anonymous questions (sometimes harsh) are discussed openly by C-level in front of the whole company

Cons

As in any company growing this fast : useless layers (both human and administrative) between decisions and execution, even though there's always a way to bypass them Ambitious hiring plan, but no clear vision on internal promotion opportunities

Pros

Smart people, fun colleagues, healthy work environment. Working hours are reasonable, even during crunch time. New MD (as of 5/2013) may have a positive impact.

Cons

In a growing company such as Criteo, the voluntary turnover in London is slightly too high. A few colleagues left because salaries stagnated (compared to the market and despite the company booming), others because of a few bad managers. Uneven management -- politics plays too big a role, unfortunately.
