Not a healthy or compensation strong company

Pros

If you are looking to be adequately compensated or have an identity outside of your OneTrust job, this is not the place for you. Is the work exciting and interesting? Definitely. Will you burnout? Most likely. OneTrust has an amazing strategy for energizing and dominating the privacy market. If you are the type of person to wear your job as your identity, you can’t find a better place to be. You can revel in the very impressive accomplishments of a young and exponentially growing company. However, you have to be realistic that the boons and bounty aren’t (most likely) going to be shared with you. You will be breaking yourself for fruits you will not see except in the form of experience and opportunities (if you play your cards right). If this is something you can accept, then this company is a good fit. It is true that you will get to do things and move around for experience if you demonstrate commitment and talent, but you trade-off is you will not be compensated for meeting or exceeding expectations fairly. The company takes a risk in putting you in positions and more responsibilities, and if their gamble works out, they get your talents at a steep discount to hiring someone with experience. In OneTrust eyes, the opportunity over compensation is more than a fair trade, and this is something you will be told repeatedly and ad nauseam. My recommendation is to enter with an exit plan. No company, including OneTrust, owes you anything. Not for time, not for talent. You need to look out for yourself, and the best way to do that with a company like OneTrust is to know what you can get out with and where you want to go. Privacy is a growing and in demand field, and OneTrust is willing to foot the bill to get you trained, experienced, and credentialed. Leverage this to move yourself to better position in a different company.

Cons

The same things you will see repeated on most reviews on here: -Poor compensation -Abusive management -Below average benefits -Horrible work-life balance

Thank you for your feedback, we are always looking for ways to improve. One of the benefits of working at OneTrust is the ability to move through different departments and gain new skill sets. We believe there is no better candidate for a position than one that’s already here. We have a ‘pay for performance’ culture, and if you do change roles and gain new responsibilities, you will be eligible to receive a 'job change' evaluation the quarter following your transition. We acknowledge that our environment can be demanding, and it is not the right fit for everyone. We strive to provide a work environment where everyone feels that they are a part of something bigger and are high achievers who enjoy working with great brand names on diverse, meaningful projects and want to make an impact for our customers and on our organization.

Pros

Good product in a new segment of the market and some bright individuals in different areas,

Cons

Far too many.....the company is growing far too fast, without due control, short sighted and arrogant management, highly pressurized environment, work/life balance non existent, unrealistic targets, no clear commercial strategy, disdain for product value in favor of new logos, poor benefits, very few salespersons on target for several quarters, keen on micromanagement , poor marketing resources, poor partner network in some geographies, at least half of the sales team are looking for new jobs....
