Pros

Still has a great product, UI, industry expertise

Cons

Upset customers, low satisfaction rate too many changes year over year no job security - laid off 80% of my team last year and is now apparently ramping it back up bringing in external leadership thats trying to "reinvent the wheel" but also has no understanding of customers current + past challenges overall company morale is low

Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate your contributions to the team as an AE and understand that changes can be challenging. We are happy to hear you still believe in OneTrust's product after your departure. We take a lot of pride in our solutions, patents, and leadership position in the market. We acknowledge the importance of clear communication and maintaining a strong company culture. Our executive leaders have made it clear they are committed to fostering a supportive, transparent, winning culture this year, and we look forward to the outcomes of all the great work our teams are doing to work toward this. We also welcomed new executive leaders within the past year - a Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Customer Officer - and we're thrilled by the progress they've made so far for our GTM teams and the positive momentum going in to FY26. As the data and AI landscapes evolve over time, so does OneTrust. Like many companies, we regularly assess our organizational needs to best serve our customers and position the company to get where we want to go. Unfortunately, some employees were affected in our past restructurings, and we have supported them through these transitions. While these transitions bring change, they also present immense opportunities. Our commitment to support our customers remains unwavering, and we are confident that we will continue to foster greater innovation, success, and sustained growth.

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.
