Pros

I began working for CDW as an AM in 2006 and went through the down years of 08 and 09. I am not a 'favorite' by any means, just a fairly hard worker and out of the box thinker, both of which are embraced. At 6 years I receive 4 weeks of vacation + week of sick, am able to work from home one day a week, and compensation is in the low 100s

Cons

Since its such a large company you obviously dont get say in where the company is going, but you still take annual surveys on 'perks'. Account managers holiday bonuses are somewhat of a joke, given the fact that sales pays everyones salary.

Pros

-Strong emphasis on training (especially in the account manager role) -Solutions oriented sales process that focuses on customer's needs -Strong team dynamic and incentives in place for Account Managers - HR (CoWorker Services) demonstrates they really care about Coworkers opinions and take actions on survey results. -Leader in a growing industry (technology)

Cons

-Base salary is often lower than the competition (especially in the AM role) -Relocation bonus could be higher for those who need to relocate, espcially when coming in at the base of an Account Manager.
