Thank you for sharing your feedback and for the time you spent at OneTrust. It's great to hear that you valued the technology, learning opportunities, and benefits during your tenure. We also recognize that experiences related to leadership, growth, autonomy, and organizational direction can significantly impact how work feels day to day. We know there is always more work to do to ensure expectations, priorities, and decision‑making are clearly communicated and consistently applied. Our People Experience & Development team is also hard at work to introduce new programs this year to address things like growth and career opportunities. They also plan to continue our people manager training program after a success launch in 2025. Like many companies, we regularly evaluate our organizational needs to best serve our customers and to position the company for long-term success. We acknowledge the contributions of those that have been part of the OneTrust team and wish them the very best in their future endeavors. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and wish you success in your next chapter.

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.
