Pros

I started as an Associate and graduated the ACE program. CDW is an amazing company and the sky is truly the limit if you work hard. The aspects about CDW I love the most are listed below. Education Growth Leadership Culture Benefits

Cons

None. My advice is to deeply research a day in the life of a consulting engineer and see if the position is for you before applying.

Pros

Great people who work really hard to deliver for their customers

Cons

Heavy sales culture that try to lock customers into a services pipeline. Executive management doesn’t have a clear vision for the company. They’d rather buy a company than develop internal resources to perform a service. Difficult to get necessary tools and training to get the job done. Benefits are kinda lacking and pay is behind the industry standard.

Pros

CDW is a great place for people to change careers and get started in IT. The ACE program offers great training and learning opportunities. You gain a lot of valuable experience in a short amount of time.

Cons

- Pay is way below market rate - CDW's sales model is broken. Sellers have a hard time selling services and many projects are poorly scoped. - Your manager is powerless to help you. Too many levels of approval to get things done. - CDW cares more about hiring and appeasing outside hires versus their homegrown talent. - Projects are very repetitive and offer little in terms of change of pace.
