Pros

Intelligent, hard-working people. Great benefits package. High market awareness and where it stands amongst competitors. Lots of room for growth.

Cons

Low pay. High turnover. Abuse of power by upper management and CEO. People forced to work long hours plus weekends REGULARLY due to absurd deadlines. Engineering department usually strapped for resources because of this. Developers on-staff are frequently drove to sickness due to how hard they're pushed to make deadlines. There's a major difference between a challenging fast-paced start-up and a madhouse with no morale and terrible leadership. Executives are more concerned with securing new clients than building quality enterprise software. Could care less about employees or company morale which makes recruiting very difficult.

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.
