For furniture that's expected to last a century or so, and for non-backed veneer (also called raw veneer), I would not use contact cement. I'd probably use urea formaldehyde glue.
I've talked with quite a few professional furniture makers who use veneer and all of them have recommended against contact cement for raw (non-backed) veneer for furniture pieces.
I can't comment on commercial furniture or built-ins.
