Pros

good projects, supportive of my professional growth and aspirations. great team members, my personal management layer is very nice to work with, the layer above that seems to be just as good.

Cons

projects are too small. projects are not taking me where I want to go for the future. there seems to be some element of cronyism in the promotion.

Pros

CDW is a well known company throughout the US and has great opportunities for entry level sales people that are motivated to work hard.

Cons

CDW is management heavy. They reward management for their employees good work. Managers get bonus when the employees lost 401K, no reviews. CDW had a layoff in 2008 and as CDW continue to grow they did not rehire the people they lost, they required all their people to work more with less. They announced the 2010 greatest year in CDW history with decreased benefits for their employees and no work life balance.

Pros

If you are willing to put in the time and effort, you will succeed at CDW. Management is always looking to hire from within.

Cons

CDW as a company tends to follow the basic rule, "It's not about what you know, it's about WHO you know.
