Business Outlook
Pros
Health insurance, education, and internal training opportunities are all excellent.
Cons
CDW has its hands in so many pies it can be extremly difficult to coordinate efforts across departments. Many departments are only connected by the sales teams, who often lack enough knowlege in the technical details to maintain a technical discussion. The new EBO (Enterprise Business Operations) department is rapidly burning out old talent with it politics and "move quick and break things" attitude. They are standardizing Pay but it has resulted in some groups (with more politically Savvy leaders) achieving better pay, while others were left behind.
