Pros

You will have a lot of autonomy in your day to day. There isn't any micromanagement but there is the expectation that you'll hit the deliverables for your role. Tons of opportunity as the company continues to grow. It's obvious that the leadership team is reinvesting in the team as growth allows but for some people may be this process moves slower than they would like.

Cons

The company's success up to this point is due to their adaptability/agility in the privacy space. This can lead to shifting priorities and also requires a very fast-paced, dynamic environment. That type of environment is not for everyone.

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.
