CDW reviews

This company is a disaster. They pay all their sales staff at a base salary that is completely below a standard rate of living. In a sales role this normally would not be bad. However, they have an awful commission structure, meaning you will never make any money. They do not factor in what segment you are in. So you get the same commission rate whether you are in small business or federal. Unfortunately, unless you get a job in the federal segment, you will never make any money. Even when hitting your goal, your commission checks are nothing and are usually never seen after taxes and benefits. After the money situation, this has to be the most mis-managed and unprofessional environment. During my employment with CDW, I had the most harassment and sexual harassment that I have ever seen in a work place. I would get depressed thinking about having to go into work and wonder what type of harassment I would face that day. I mentioned it to management on multiple occasions (over ten times in five months). My manager's boss told her to address this to HR and she never did so. She also told me that there was nothing that could be done. Then I brought up to another boss, but he just participated in the behavior. I was told every day that I should not be getting married due to my age and asked every day if I was pregnant (I am not). People would come in hung over all day and spend their days trying to hook up with other co-workers. They would talk about your body. Nearly every day the office put the hard working, kind receptionist in tears for doing her job. When I finally quit and had the opportunity to share with HR the terrible experiences I had, they begged me to stay. The day after I quit, the Director for my location and segment called me and asked me to come back. This made me so angry. If the company had addressed serious issues and worked on a making the environment professional, they would not of lost me. I urge you to re-consider before accepting a position with this company. The only people who belong at this company are kids who are still living off their parents money, without a college degree, who only care about getting drunk and having sex, and who do not know the difference between an office environment and a zoo.

So management heavy now that they can't get anything done. Worst part is they did this to themselves with inept management trying to protect themselves and their futures. Really sad to see from what was a fantastic place to work not too long ago.
