Pros

Great benefits and spiffs. If you work hard, it pays off. But you don't have time for a social life outside of work.

Cons

No time for a social life. They hold after work conferences all of the time where they try to trick you into thinking that you are socializing, but it's all just for work.

Pros

Great products - lot's of fine vendors to work with. The facilities are fantastic. Vendors supply tons of good food and events. The complete package is really great. CDW is good about teaching you how to do your job better.

Cons

Debt DEBT DEBT - yuk! - The private venture firm seems to add a lot of pressure to executive management. It would be great if we were still a debt-free organization. But the upside - we will go public again when the economy comes back and co-workers will profit.

Pros

You can make money if you are lucky and are given good accounts and regions. If you work hard and stay very close to the manager and brown nose you will be successful. If you do not play their games you will not do well.

Cons

Everything depends on management, they determine your future. There is not a good channel of communication. Many times things were changing around the company and the employees were kept in the dark until the last moment. No information is worse than bad news.
