Pros

- Great colleagues, and also a good opportunity for people looking at a career in privacy/tech. - Nice office/location

Cons

- CEO, probably the most arrogant and cliche CEO I've come across. Treats every meeting as if he is performing a TED talk, venting about how LuCkY you should feel working there. - Management can be very cliquy, making it hard to trust them with information 1:1. - Literally no special benefits offered, other than the bare minimum like maternity leave and a lousy discount scheme (basically useless). - No chance to advance in certain departments. If you do, expect no pay rise. - The company is called OneTrust, but ironically shows no trust in their employees, in regards to working from home, flexible hours etc. - If they don't like you, they have no problem firing you. They recently fired a bunch of staff based on performance, with no prior warning nor possibility to improve. All of this in the middle of COVID-19. - No work/life balance

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.
