Pros

If you asked me at the beginning of my tenure, I'd have had an answer to that question.

Cons

I asked my supervisor for help communicating with the sales staff, in response my boss quit talking to me for many months. Just, quit talking to me. My coworker threatened me, and HR tells me he has a hearing problem. (As if I can't tell the difference between someone who is leaning in because they can't hear, and someone who has pushed me into a corner, and put his angry face six inches away from mine, spitting and pointing his stupid finger at me because I asked him to correct his mistake. That doesn't sound like a hearing problem to me.) He was not reprimanded for this, nor was he asked to move his desk away from me. Later, I began receiving an unpredictable number of assignments every day, I asked me boss to either even that out, or tell me when it will change and he, of course, never did. My bosses, and HR, each tell me that these are not genuine problems. I just "perceive" them as problems. CDW is gaslighting me, which is a common bullying tactic. I took a leave when I began having panic attacks at the office. I asked for a work-from-home accommodation, but CDW declined to offer it. This organization is full of bullies.

Pros

You have the ability to sell full stack solutions, services and software.

Cons

I have worked at CDW for 10yrs and every single year they have changed the comp plan in a way that makes it harder for sellers to make money (constantly moving the goal post). Prior to 2020 CDW had little to no lay offs now it is happening every six months. They say the reasons is to reduce cost and improve efficiencies BUT as a company our sales continue to grow along with the C-levels pockets.
