Pros

Good benefits, decent pay (though this is slipping quick) Incredibly talented coworkers Nice office

Cons

Incredibly poor transparency Inconsistent Leadership Structure Lack of true understanding of customer needs One of the worst training environments i have ever been a part of Lack luster Work-Life Balance Supreme Politics when it comes to promotions (if they dont just walk it back on you) No diversity in Executive Level Recently merit increases have been delayed 2 months with no details provided to the empoyee base. LEadership points to HR, HR points to leadership. Some of the next gen products just do not work at scale and instead of working on them we just try to force it to the market.

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.
