Pros

The product is good and evolves frequently to meet industry changes

Cons

No ethic of work-life balance. Most employees are very new and bullied into working as many hours as humanly possible. Example of this is compulsory training which lasts 12 hours per day for 3 consecutive days as well as dealing with day to day tasks. Another example is encouraging employees focused on oversees territories to travel overnight for meetings without accommodation. Culture is based on fear rather than motivation.

Thank you for your feedback! We are excited about the OneTrust tool and how we can continue to evolve in the Privacy space. We always want our employees to feel respected and that they can voice their opinions. We recently updated our PTO policy to include 20 days of Paid Time Off as well as 3 Sick Days per year! OneTrust supports a healthy work-life balance and hopes that you will take advantage of the increased PTO.

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.
