Pros

Made a lot of great friends there and HR is pretty good. Has the young start up culture feel which is super nice if that’s what you were looking for. You get some great experience and I’d say job was not hard to get so it’s good if you’re coming out of college.

Cons

Had to work long 10-12 hrs on not just some weeks but a lot of weeks. management Is abusive and very demoralizing . Will blame you for errors even if it wasn’t your fault to begin with. CEO isn’t any better, also yelled us for not doing well and had unrealistic expectations despite being under staffed At the time . The pay and benefits was a joke for the amount of work we did and I never moved up despite being promised that it was an easy company to move up in if you worked hard . My advice If you’re going to work here is to get the experience and leave as soon as you get an offer elsewhere since it doesn’t seem like the company has a future in the long run due to it only offering solutions to GDPR

We appreciate your feedback - our people are the foundation of our success and we pride ourselves on hiring the best of the best! We operate in a very deadline-intensive industry where missed delivery items can not only mean customer dissatisfaction but monetary and legal ramifications for them and thus we must ask our team members to be incredibly nimble. While we are typically not a 9-5 environment, its always been our goal to recognize our hard working employees with performance spot bonuses, competitive salaries and accelerated career opportunities for going the extra mile!

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.
