Pros

Global company. Lots of opportunity. The product/technology WORKS. Smart people. Productive, collaborative, fast-growth, fun environment. The company has grown tremendously over the last year and yes, there were some bumps and bruises along the way. Moving the corporate office from Palo Alto to New York was not an easy task and there were casualties, as expected. Moving out of start-up mode has also been difficult...and turnover both company-initiated and employee-initiated was expected. However, what Criteo does really well: Identifies the best talent, nurtures that talent, allows that talent opportunities (including global opps) Recognizes the high demands the company makes on its employees for top performance and tries to reward that (work hard, play hard) Tries to be competitive in all aspects of the industry (as an employer, as a product, as a partner) Great benefits (medical, wellness, perks) Awesome work spaces (Paris, London, NY, Boston, etc)

Cons

Growth can bring on cumbersome process and layers of management. It makes turning the ship much more difficult and no longer as nimble as it used to be.

Good work life balance, all young people.

Cons

Taking away perks that we have had for a long time. Eventually reach your cap as an IC.

Pros

People I worked with and the culture was great, work life balance was fantastic.

Cons

Every year now it layoffs, makes one want to ask a question. Perhaps Criteo needs a better CFO to manage the companies finances. Being every year Criteo is laying people off, yet CFO still remains. Perhaps Criteo needs to look at those who are staying a bit closer.
