Pros

There were good people who worked here from the time the company was founded until 2022.

Cons

Almost too many to list. The review headline does state the obvious around this pyramid scheme of companies where only the top of the pyramid is set to benefit. If they could lower everyone's compensation they would. If they can not do that legally then layoffs are the answer.

Thank you for taking the time to share your OneTrust experience with us. We agree that our employees are some of the best talent out there. We wouldn't be the category-defining, market leader we are today without the team we've built over the past seven years. Last year, we moved from a high-growth start up to a company focused on long-term growth and value for our customers. We welcomed a number of acquired companies and new leadership to build and scale the leading Trust Intelligence Platform. Since then, we've introduced and built upon several other initiatives internally to make sure our people can do their best work. Some of that includes phase one of an annual performance management process, new company values, investing in DEI and Employee Trust Groups to support our values and our employees' beliefs, enhanced benefits like 14+ weeks paid parental leave globally, and so much more. We also received internal feedback that employees wanted more information about OneTrust's financials. In the spirit of transparency, we introduced regular "Inside the Numbers" sessions with our CFO that take a deeper dive into our company's finances beyond what's shared in our quarterly All Hands hosted by our CEO. What an incredible opportunity for our people to learn directly from our CFO! These sessions provide understanding around the impact of our people's work and how OneTrust is performing as a whole. We look forward to future Inside the Numbers sessions so that we can continue to learn about OT's performance directly from our executive leaders. We're always looking for ways to improve, and we know we have more impactful work ahead. That's what makes OT an exciting place to be - so that we can all build a foundation together for a bigger and better OneTrust. Thanks again for sharing your perspective.

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.
