Pros

Mostly good people, good vacation, work hard but flexibility around it. The right team can be great. Wrong team can be awful.

Cons

Confusing leadership, whiplash decision making and a few years of big bets on platform direction that they got wrong which has meant core product is playing catch-up

Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's great to hear you enjoy working with your coworkers while having generous PTO and flexibility. We recognize our strategy has changed over time. On our maturity journey, we've pivoted to address changes in technology, regulations, and society, and we've also focused on simplifying our platform while enhancing speed, responsiveness, and flexibility. Our workforce has the opportunity to hear from our Executive leaders quarterly in multiple channels - through our All Hands, Culture & Coffee, and Inside the Numbers. In these forums, our leaders provide transparent data about how we're performing as a company with a look ahead into the future. With these sessions and regular feedback loops with employees, our leaders are listening, and they are investing in our culture by giving transparent results. Additionally, they are investing in real estate and events to ensure our people have a place to do their best work and celebrate. It's a great time to join the OneTrust team as we continue to make an impact on responsible data and AI use. All of our people, no matter their level and tenure, have the opportunity to influence and build a foundation for what we hope to be a generational company someday. We look forward to OneTrust's future!

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.
