Pros

This rating system needs a bit of a work, I'm a bit more then satisfied but dont think its perfect, so I'm giving CDW the benefit of the doubt... Tons of resources. I have friends at other technology companies and they dont have 5% of what we are able to offer customers. Self powered. My managers have never micro managed me to death, allow and encourage me to take time off, visit customers, ect. location, have to throw this in, its right across from Union Station. I dont even come from the burbs but for those that do its awesome. Coworkers, work with a lot of great people that are great at what they do

Cons

Some of this will sound contradictory, so bare with me... Coworkers, since CDW is such a large company I think we get desperate to hire at times. That being said I have seen some morons Starting off in Sales, it can suck. Base pay isnt much and you need to grow your account base Work from home still isnt readily available for everyone, in sales you need to be at a top % of your group to get this perk. I feel like we are a bit behind the curve here. IMO proven people that know what they are doing should get to work from home once in a while

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.
