Autonomy, but not much interaction with product and siloed development culture

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- A lot of autonomy when it came to releasing software - Good work-life balance - Criteo does an excellent job hiring personable individuals who are a pleasure to work with

Cons

- Product specifications are dropped in the laps of the development teams. No opportunity for development teams to ask questions of the product stakeholders and subject matter experts prior to being expected to build the feature. Often lead to building the wrong thing - Development on your immediate team was often siloed where one or two people may have the background context on what was being built while other team members would not. This made peer reviews and product support difficult. - Acceptance criteria very often times not included for tasks in project management software making it difficult to evaluate if the software is doing what it is supposed to
