Pros

Great people in mid/junior level. Lovely benefits.

Cons

Far too many 'heads'-no room whatsoever for creativity or new ideas. There's a lot of two faced activity and job descriptions are vague. Has a culture of they'd rather pay someone to do it than do it themselves. Spend too much money on nothing. Don't dare attempt to prove the senior management wrong.

Pros

Criteo is definitely nothing like any other company I have worked for. I came from a super corporate environment, so it took a little while to get used to some of the perks... ~Amazing, helpful, laid back personalities of fellow employees and management ~Frequent happy hours and social events ~Casual yet professional dress code ~Yearly trip to Paris for a company summit Criteo is an amazing company to work for, some tweaks need to be worked out, but I can honestly say I enjoy coming to work every day. Everyone here works hard and it shows. Having that kind of environment pushes everyone else to go above and beyond.

Cons

The technology is not up-to-par. I don’t have the authority to do a lot of the things I should without going around the red tape. Since this is a French based company, working with the time difference is difficult, it’s hard to get things done. I feel like the offices outside of Paris are just following along in their footsteps without any control. Its not fair when we have issues at hand and need an immediate response. All the decisions come from people who work in a completely different time zone and its impossible to get answers and get your job done. We don’t have a dedicated IT person who knows everything with our systems and programs in the office daily to help us with all the different issues/questions we have. Usually, we wait for Paris for answers, and waiting for Paris is definitely NOT a pleasant experience; especially when they really don’t understand the issue at hand. We are a tech company correct?? Well, we definitely need more knowledgeable technical people helping employees out with daily issues in every office.
