If you do not wish all employees to have access to every contact, you will need secure contact sharing. Secure sharing works by assigning contacts to employees or teams, and restricting access so only these assignees can share the contacts.

When this mode is enabled, access is still provided to administrators and managers. Anyone who is a manger of an assigned employee will receive access to that contact as well, in addition to that manager’s manager, continuing on up the hierarchy of managers. Also, any employee with a Super User role gets access to all contacts.
