Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We appreciate your feedback and your continued commitment over the past few years. It's great to hear that you value our emphasis on work/life balance, our modern tech stack, and the investment in a better employee experience for our teams in Bengaluru. We recognize OneTrust isn't perfect, and there is a lot of opportunity to improve and accelerate. Our executive leadership team continues to evaluate the business to ensure we're set up for long-term success. Most recently, our leaders brought on a new Chief Technology Officer to guide our Engineering team, and we are excited for what he brings to the table as we move forward. Our teams are committed to continuous improvement, and as the data and AI landscape continues to evolve, we will continue to support our 14,000 customers.

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.
