Pros

OneTrust has a great product, a great vision and will do great in the short medium and long term. If you want a company where you are pushed to be better and move into new roles then it's a great opportunity.

Cons

The company has come a long way in the past year in terms of looking after employees, but has a long way to go still. A good example of this is that the company has completely dragged it's heels for home working during Covid-19, now even on teams where the average person is on over 6 figure packages there are 10+ calls a week to check how many calls and emails they plan to send that day. At the same time we are being told not to over contact our prospective customers during a pandemic as they are very likely busy, we have 10 calls per week going through our activity levels to make sure they are normal. Managers are spending 2-3 hours on daily goals and while I get this for a junior sales team this is insulting to say the least and mostly a complete waste of everyone's time.

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.
