Pros

Good compensation package compared to market. Some very brilliant senior managers (VIP -1)

Cons

The Vice President-level management exhibits significant deficiencies in people management skills. It appears that many individuals in these roles have been appointed based on personal connections rather than demonstrated expertise or qualifications.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. While it's good to hear you appreciate your comp package and certain managers, it's disappointing to learn you aren't enjoying your role at OneTrust. We acknowledge your feedback regarding senior manager enablement. Our Leadership & Development team has done incredible work this year to move the needle in this area. They rolled out OneTrust's first Leadership Foundations program in June 2025 to help equip and enable our people leaders to go from just managing people to effectively leading, inspiring, and empowering teams. We look forward to future sessions and additional development programming from the team.

Pros

Unfortunately there isn't anything worth highlighting. If you are actively interviewing at OneTrust, I would encourage you to carefully read through the reviews. There are several red flags that I wish I would have been aware of prior to joining.

Cons

- Unsustainable turnover and bad leadership: The CEO, CRO, CFO, and CTO abruptly quit shortly after I started. There is extremely high turnover across all teams (particularly in GTM). Favoritism runs rampant, especially with tenured leaders. - Lack of job security and stability: At the beginning of this year, several of my peers were impacted by a reduction in force. This unfortunately appears to be a common occurrence at the start of the fiscal year. OneTrust is a revolving door for top talent. - Poor compensation: The bonus pool was slashed a few weeks after being announced at a company all-hands. This money was allegedly invested elsewhere (unclear where though). There is no equity refresh for existing employees and merit increases were far and few between this year. - Lack of diversity: Despite being headquartered in Atlanta, there are no black c-suite members. The board has no female members. Diversity is limited at the most senior leadership levels.
