Toxic Environment

Pros

My direct leadership, teammates, SE and specialists are great. Great people, smart, motivated, ethical. The product is very timely in the marketplace and is what companies are looking to add to their business today.

Cons

The lack of E and S leadership has caused a very toxic, hunger games type environment. There are unethical practices being tolerated in certain areas of the business that have driven away a lot of the people that made OT great. Also, the company is a mess operationally. Helping customers, getting approvals, sending a quote out - those are all things that can take at least a week. Finally, because everyone is stressed out about low numbers and the random layoffs they continue to do, everything is a fire drill. You will feel like you are an on call doctor, not someone selling technology.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's great to see you recognized the strength of our product in the market today. OneTrust is doing something really important at the right time. There's a huge TAM at our fingertips that we're tapping into through new business and expansions, and it's all in the name of using data and AI responsibly. Working at OneTrust gives all employees the ability to do meaningful work every day. OneTrust isn't the same company today as it was in 2016 when it started. We've been scaling recently, so new leaders from other successful tech companies have joined the organization to lead us in the right direction. They have been making changes over time to ensure OneTrust is positioned for long-term growth. We acknowledge there's a lot of work to do before we get there, but we look forward to the journey. Our leaders plan to continue listening to employees through regular surveys, and they will do what's best for our company and people along the way.

Very political environment

Pros

The pay is good and pto is nice

Cons

There is a lot of office politics and nepotism. Right before my manager quit he informed me that several members of my team would soon be laid off and our positions will be out-sourced. There's not much room for growth and you rarely get praised or awarded for going above and beyond.

Avoid if you can

Pros

You will be forced to learn a lot about the industry.

Cons

Arrogant, tyrannical leadership at all levels (creepy/cringey CEO).  Most managers have inflated egos and little experience before our outside of OT.  Zero work life balance, harassment in 1:1's and harassment on chat at all hours.  Sweatshop culture, not a culture of loyalty and reps who suffer longer than 6 months are indoctrinated and/or naive (those who think it's cool to work at a 'unicorn' with substandard pay and little or no equity).  Low pay for saas sales roles, commission claw-backs for selling solutions that you are mandated to sell but break because they aren't ready.

Thanks for taking the time to write a review. We're sorry to read about your OneTrust experience. We encourage you to utilize the internal Ethics & Compliance Portal or to reach out to your HRBP to report any harassment, as that is something we do not tolerate. OneTrust has been through a lot of change this year. We’ve moved from a high-growth start up to one focused on long-term growth and value for our customers. We welcomed a number of acquired companies and new leadership to build and scale the leading Trust Intelligence Platform. We recognize that our culture has shifted as a result. Over the past few months, we’ve been hard at work refreshing our culture and values to re-center and give us a north star for how we show up and how we make decisions. 100’s of employees participated in our focus groups and nearly 2,000 provided feedback via our engagement survey to help shape our culture. We’re looking forward to releasing our refreshed culture and values work in February at our Company Kickoff.
