Pros

Joining, equipment provision. The people who do the work and know their stuff are invaluable and welcoming

Cons

Absolutely zero people management, personal development or HR process at all. Exec / Snr Management can't be trusted at all and have no loyalty to their staff. Recent introduction of TIme Recording was not to benefit the company in understanding billable time spent etc but simply you must complete DAILY and be min 85% billable at min 100% utilised... apart from 20% MINIMUM of your time per week is spent attending training and release updates or 'management standups'. AND if you dont complete daily you risk being fired (yes actually said in a standup) !! A friend once said "in the UK you marry a company but in the US you merely date" but I feel OneTrust has shown itself to be a one night stand company

Work here only if you're desperate for a paycheck

Pros

* Depending on your role, you can learn a lot from your coworkers. A lot of talented people work here. * Impressive product. * Good amount of PTO - 20 PTO days, 3 sick days + your birthday off * Close to Sandy Springs MARTA Station

Cons

* CEO is a loose canon and disrupts work he does not need to be involved in. * Every single employee, in every department is overworked. It makes collaborations across departments difficult. * They take advantage of the hard workers they employ. They’ve lost some of their best and brightest from unrealistic expectations. * Working from home is not an option, unless there is a special circumstance that you have to get approved. The CEO will often say it is an option during our monthly meetings, but we all know that is not the case. * CEO does not believe in the company participating in community service, as stated in an “Ask Me Anything” session. The photos of employees volunteering are the HR staff. I can only assume those were taken for social media. * If you’re interviewing, use the salaries on here as a base point, but ALWAYS ask for more. You WILL NOT get a chance to bump your salary up to be comparable with the rest of your team - no matter how many times they tell you otherwise. Negotiate, negotiate, negotiate!! * No respect for employee personal time. No work life balance. * Company does not do anything fun on a regular basis to keep morale up. CEO just wants you at your desk, working, 24/7. * No praise or reward for a job well done - no matter how big the win. * You’re surrounded by people who look miserable. * Before COVID, they were hiring 100 new people every month; turnover is very high. If this doesn’t tell you to run, I don’t know what will.

Thanks for providing feedback and for highlighting our talented staff and the quality you have recognized in our product. The two certainly don’t exist without each other. As a company defining an entirely new category of software, we understand that OneTrust can be a demanding environment. We are in an incredibly fast-growing market where our customers are under enormous pressure to meet hard deadlines for new regulations. We are inventing and building products from the ground up and all of this creates an incredibly exciting atmosphere, but also a challenging one at times. We are continuing to hire aggressively to give our team both a path for quick career progression as well as extra resources to share in the workload. Our company operates as a unit – one team, sharing the burden and helping each other out wherever possible. For example, when our US team was under pressure to meet the new CCPA regulation deadline, we flew in several UK teammates to help reduce the workload on the US team. Our environment creates a lot of excitement and opportunities for our broader team and we continue to find opportunities to help our employees balance their work and home lives. We have increased the number of vacation days across our global offices consistently every year including most recently a “Community Day” dedicated to diversity learning and engagement as a part of this initiative. We’ve had the opportunity to create 1,500 jobs in 10 global locations in under 4 years and as we continue to mature, we look forward to finding additional ways we can continue to give back and contribute to the broader community. Working and functioning as one team, the collaboration that an in-office environment has afforded us is invaluable. We firmly believe we would not be where we are today without building relationships in-person. We also firmly believe we wouldn’t be where we are today without our talented team. We have a very mature process for annual salary increases for employees as well as each team and an on-going “Spot Bonus” program to recognize teammates going above and beyond with instant recognition and generous financial rewards. Thank you again for your feedback!

Pros

Your colleagues will be smart

Cons

Beware of leadership... they lack transparency and cannot be trusted If you’re not part of the circle, which is the ex Manhattan or airwatch clique, then you will go no where in this organization. There is no culture and people are miserable.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are happy to hear that your coworkers’ abilities met your expectations. We take a lot of pride in hiring the best. Transparency and communication have been a major point of emphasis since OneTrust was founded in 2016. Since our inception, we have launched a number of initiatives to help maintain that emphasis. You’ll see this commitment during our monthly All-Hands meetings, our Ask Me Anything sessions with CEO, Kabir Barday, and various other opportunities to let your voice be heard whether it be the more traditional engagement with your HR Business Partner or, as we have been encouraged, directly to Kabir himself. Additionally, we are currently evaluating and making additions to our Employee Engagement efforts in an attempt to provide employees with the ability to play an increasingly active role in development and fine tuning of various processes and policies. As an industry leader we understand the need to constantly step back and take a look at the efficacy of previous initiatives. As a company we are committed to constant improvement for our employees and customers as well as a culture of high performance and execution. We will continue to seek employees whose values align with that commitment. Thank you again for your feedback
