Pros

They take a real interest in their employees. They thrive to be top notch, debt free and competitive. The vibe is really positive and I honestly think the people for the most part are amazing!

Cons

They have an awesome systems training. However the remaining of the training is to be desired.

Pros

The location is great, the facility is wonderful, the co-workers are fabulous. Great job perks. Wonderful benefits! Great potential to retire wealthy if you do the job the way they expect you to.

Cons

Technology sales can be very hard in CDW's backyard. Very little marketing, cold calling is a tedious job some days.

First and foremost, our account managers are tenured, talented, respected by our business partners. They sell the value of conducting business with Connection. While technology sales can be challenging in a highly competitive arena, the rewards are bountiful. From developing solutions to fulfill customers’ needs while providing exemplary service, creating account loyalty to lend to long-term relationships, applying training techniques, utilizing and exposure to technology to being handsomely compensated, these are a few highlights experienced by our Account Managers. Connection effectively manages resources while operating efficiently. While practical marketing efforts have their place, Connection also creates distinctive marketing programs to achieve results. We remain committed to investing in our future. Thank you for your support.
