Pros

There are none...and all the reviews on here are now from employees that have been told to write positive things about the company

Cons

Where to begin...you are brain washed. Made to be a stepford wife ...not think for yourself at all but are trained what to say, how to say it..

Pros

I worked in IT with a great group of people who were really trying to improve the company. The pay was good.

Cons

The benefits were mediocre at best. Management outside of IT is known to be volatile and difficult to work with, and the company is run like a small business under the micro-management of the CEO. IT was going well, but the upper IT management and 1/4 of the department just got gutted because of poor company performance. No warning, no real severance or appreciation for a job well done.

Recent changes to Cambria's IT department were driven by inadequate individual performance. This appears to have impacted you. Cambria's IT department is 61 strong and growing due to recent record sales months. Some of our highest performers were recently rewarded with salary increases. Our high performance and high accountability culture fuels our successful continuous growth and sales numbers. Our culture is not a fit for every resource. We wish you and other former employees all of the best in your future endeavors.

Pros

Passionate people. Great place to learn and get involved in a lot of different aspects of the business. Great product that stands the test of time. Pay is above the rest of the industry. It's a Minnesota success story!

Cons

Corporate culture is rubbish. Marty, the CEO, hires a lot of family and friends to be on the leadership team. Frankly, they're not qualified and they're running the company into the ground. Very little metrics or communication for any department to measure their performance with. No teamwork between departments - it's every man for himself. Quick to throw people under the bus. Management is heavy-handed and likes to yell. They enjoy the old way of doing business and don't encourage new ideas or innovative thinkers. IT is underwhelming - takes forever for a ticket to be completed without a call to the CIO. The company is in need of some serious automation - too many painstaking manual processes that management is required to do everyday. The HR department - if you can call it that - is disappointing and a terrible business partner. No work/life balance. Your long hours and hard work go unnoticed by senior leadership - it's just expected of you. Too much secrecy. Vacation policy is bare. No dental or vision. Very expensive medical insurance if you've got a family. It usually takes 3 years to get a raise - but you usually get a nice bump.
