Pros

Some of the people are very talented

Cons

Lack of organization, managers and other higher ups are clueless about certain aspects of their job, CEO is too involved in the day-to-day operations of the company, work-life balance is nonexistent, uncertainty about the direction the company is headed in, no companywide work from home policy (I know, strange for a tech company), just overall a not so great place to be.

Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to highlight your talented peers! As a 4-year-old business, like any business from start-up to Fortune 500, we are constantly rethinking and iterating on how to best organize our teams and processes in order to continue to deliver excellence for our customers. We have a process every quarter to continue to refine our processes, and our growth and success in the market are certainly indicators that this continues to be successful as we grow, mature and iterate. As the fastest growing company in the industry and with a management team with a history of building and scaling businesses that are built to last, our employees and customers choose to work with OneTrust primarily because of our long-term outlook and our ability to invest in the market, our team and our product. Certainly during the COVID period, all companies in the market globally had a moment of uncertainty and OneTrust was no different and fortunately, the market we are in recovered quickly. We set expectations during the recruitment process that this is not your typical 9 to 5 job. With a 4-year growth rate of 48,000% and #1 standing in a highly competitive market, things move fast here and we understand that this isn't going to be the right environment for everyone. We can't say enough about the efforts put forth by our talented team and we continue to find opportunities to help our employees balance their work and home lives. We have increased the number of vacation days across our global offices consistently every year including a "Community Day" dedicated to diversity learning and engagement, and even just announced a day off this year in September for employee appreciation. We value employee participation so feel free to reach out to your HR Business Partner if you have any concerns, suggestions or questions. Thank you!

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.
