Pros

Good people. Most seem to genuinely care for the success of the company (and therefore individual success as well).

Cons

Not really a “con” but seems as though working in one of the satellite locations vs the headquarters is a different world comparatively. Seems like some would disagree with this input but I can only comment on my own location/experience.

Pros

One of the leaders in the field of IT sales. Potential for extremely high income. The Chicago location is a great place to work. Benefits are good. Also, there is a variety of fringe benefits, such as free happy hours, free lunch, free outings, and prizes, to name a few.

Cons

The Dallas location is a terrible place to work. If you want to work for CDW, move to Chicago. The biggest Con lies squarely on the leaders in the Dallas office. The leadership in Dallas is lazy, ego driven, and is incapable of helping their staff improve/succeed. They don't seem to be motivated to be good leaders , they're more focused on their job security. Career development, or assistance in growing your sales acumen, is non-existent in Dallas. Hard work by a sales rep is not rewarded in Dallas. This is a named account environment and if management provides a bad account with no potential, then you will not make money. The managers will not put effort into fixing this issue.
