Pros

Criteo has very good benefits; higher then other companies. They have a good marketing department supporting everything in a professional way; they will teach you a lot about the digital landscape; great employer to start your career. Everything is well organized.

Cons

Working for Criteo is like working Kim Jung Ung; they have regulations for everything you do. They have a trainings where you're told to rat on colleges when you see something that's not in line with their policy. Theres no room for creativity at all - none. No room for growth either. Very high stress levels.

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.
