Pros

Really smart employees - young and fun group of people to be around. A social office that plans fun activities like happy hour, lunches out and parties for celebrations. It is a fun product and industry to be a part of.

Cons

To start, Marty Davis has tried to get many negative reviews on Glassdoor taken down and that says A LOT about the company. Problems are projected back onto the employ that brings them up vs. dealt with properly. No culture of continuous improvement. HR in this company didn't even exist until 2018. Marty refuses to believe there are any issues within the company that correlate directly to him, which majority do. To start, when you are hired you are paid an average market salary - however, there are no cost of living increases yearly, no merit raises, no bonuses until what I was personally told 3 years of employment. Profit sharing I believe starts at 5 years. The funny thing is turnover is high barely anyone makes it that long, coincidence? I think not. Each year your bonus is an outlandish company party where the booze is flowing and barely any food. Even if you were promised commission or a raise in your offer letter, you probably won't see it. Little to no diversity in the corporate offices and no tolerance for difference of thought - only promote Christian holidays like Christmas, rarely ever see people of color, people with disabilities and virtually no representation from the LGBTQ community, Fox News is what plays on the TV in the break room with the remote taken away from employees. Aside from disallowing WFH in general, they also refused to allow working remotely during the initial COVID-19 outbreak and only did so once the Gov. declared non-essential business closures. Corporate employees sent home to work full time with 60% pay. You are given a corporate cell phone that is to be answered at all times, even on PTO. You are NOT allowed to put an out of office on your calendar when you are on PTO. Benefits are pitiful...People reading this - every single negative review is true no matter how leadership spins their canned answer, these stories only scratch the surface, you truly could write a book about this place.

Pros

Pay, comprehensive training program, company car, cell phone, computer, marketing materials, good website, nice product line, nice accommodations at annual sales meetings,

Cons

Too much drama, arrogance, dysfunctional, lack of support, video camera in the car that leadership shows to clients and laughs at their employees, blooper reel of car video camera "hilarious" moments, heavy drinking environment and those that partake are revered and praised, "Presidential Award Circle" that is rewarded with trip to Italy - based on popularity not on sales. Mass firings that they say are based on not meeting numbers but no sales number goals ever given.

Cambria Response

Cambria is a high-performance growth company. We are excited about what we do, and hire employees whose passion and strong work ethic align with ours. Not everyone is a fit for this type of culture. We value candor and transparency, two important values to be a successful company. We do not value posting as anonymous on a general review site, we do however encourage candid and transparent communication at all levels of our company. We encourage every employee to speak to their manager with any concerns they may have.

Pros

Incredible product, good Marketing, decent salary

Cons

They lure you in with a decent base salary and tell you about the bonus to goal, but they put the goal so out of reach, - you will not get bonus. Throw a rock and you'll hit 5 MAWM (middle aged white men) in management positions. Ridiculous KPI expectations that run you ragged...and they must be in person. If you have an amazing zoom meeting or phone call with a client, because they are in another state - nope, sorry - that doesn't count, they must be face-to-face. The anxiety will loom over you...and your car, which they boast during the interview process is a "benefit" is a piece of junk spy capsule with GPS that they monitor and track against your calendar when they feel like it, most of the fleet is 200+K miles, even when a mechanic highly encourages new tires because of wear - denied...now, go get those meetings in the snow. Those that have never done the job tell you the KPI isn't that bad...but when you get all the other internal meetings thrown in, and get your salesforce up-to-date and do this, and do that, and have you done this yet... The micromanagement is real and getting worse. It's not enough to log your calls into salesforce, now they want to mandate exactly when you do it. If you are used to being treated like an adult and are given the trust and autonomy to get the job done to the best of your ability - you will hate this place.
