Pros

Used to be a good place, now it's all about billing and numbers.

Cons

New process of staffing projects gives you automated emails and 'match.com' like 22 jobs have viewed your profile. Moved away from meaningful and profitable growth into a staffing chop shop. Clear direction is to staff the projects with the lowest paid engineer and the highest bill rate and hope the customer doesn't notice.

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.
