Pros

Not sure what there are anymore. Everyone I know from when I started in 2019 is now gone forcibly or they were smart and left. I believe the product itself is phenomenal, and the SE`s and PSO teams are top notch. As an AE, though, there was no stability. Direct Managers were great except for one. I would not recommend OT for sales or legal, but I would for any technical positions. .

Cons

New territory every quarter. Former AE`s sold bad deals which created messes to constantly clean up. Not renewing went against your number, and no one is buying till you fix the issues which is a massive time suck, and you are on an island to oversee the fixes. Spend 40 hours over 3 months writing a new SOW for 300k and 0 goes towards your number. You get paid a little, but who cares if it isn't going towards your number. MUST be a top 5 performer every quarter to survive, no excuses, even if the excuses are legitimate concerns for OTs longevity. Leadership became hyper focused on getting to IPO and quit putting their customers first.

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.
