Pros

I like the people I work with, and also like that we are not micromanaged and can choose when we can take breaks and lunch . Lots of resouces on sight Strong management team-The best teach the best But it is not a job for everyone.

Cons

Wish that the pay was better! $25K is NO way to make a living in Chicago where cost of living is very expensive. The cons are alot of cold calling and none of these leads are provided. The book they give you in the beginning, are mostly terrible accounts. Management thinks there are all of these new buisness wanting to buy technology Hearing that it will take 2 years to see ROI

Pros

You have the ability to sell full stack solutions, services and software.

Cons

I have worked at CDW for 10yrs and every single year they have changed the comp plan in a way that makes it harder for sellers to make money (constantly moving the goal post). Prior to 2020 CDW had little to no lay offs now it is happening every six months. They say the reasons is to reduce cost and improve efficiencies BUT as a company our sales continue to grow along with the C-levels pockets.
