Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. It's disappointing to read about your experience. We do agree that our market opportunities are exciting especially as we continue to innovate our solutions. The demand for using data and AI responsibly continues to rise, and OneTrust is answering the call by providing solutions to a number of complex problems. Our Sales team has a giant, growing TAM at their fingertips. This in combination with the addition of our new CRO, Roger Egan, makes now a great time to be part of our GTM team. We look forward to his direction and guidance. OneTrust has always been an evolving company since its inception 8 years ago. It all starts with the markets in which we operate and the ever-evolving data and AI landscape. We owe it to our customers to shift our strategy at times in order to meet their needs. Our leaders recognize this can result in some ambiguity and internal changes. It also provides a dynamic, fun environment for those who are excited to build and roll up their sleeves. Additionally, one of the People team's upcoming projects is developing a brand new management & people leader development program. This will provide a consistent north star and set a foundation for a culture of learning and success among all our teams globally. We are excited to see this project come to life soon.

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.
