Sales Professionals Beware- Declining Culture and Micromanagement - Market Representative Cambria Employee Review

I’ve never left a company review before but felt compelled to share my experience to caution potential sales professionals considering joining this company. Once hailed as an outstanding workplace where market representatives embraced their roles with passion and pride, Cambria has sadly undergone a distressing transformation over the past few years. Cambria’s downfall began with a shift toward micromanagement. Monitoring includes in-car video surveillance…Yes, you read that right – as a Market Representative, your movements are monitored via in-car video surveillance. The level of surveillance has reached such extremes that district managers are encouraged to watch videos in hopes of finding reasons to scrutinize or terminate employees. The current mood among market representatives is disheartening, merely waiting for the right opportunity to jump ship. As someone who once cherished the company's culture, it pains me to witness its decline and watch fellow co-workers tossed to the curb without severance. Long standing market representatives are being replaced with “entry level sales representatives” so the company can save a dime. The owner, once caring and involved, now seems indifferent to the erosion and dishonesty within the management ranks. To those contemplating a career as a Market Representative at Cambria, I urge you not to settle. There are countless opportunities in the building industry with companies that trust their employees' and care about their well-being and professional growth. Cambria, unfortunately, no longer falls into that category.
