Pros

Great people at the individual contributer level.

Cons

CDW used to be a great place to work with lots of folks staying on decades. That has all changed under current leadership. They have ruined this organization and it has become an awful place to work where layoffs are a regular occurrence. You're asked to work more to cover the losses, then eventually laid off yourself. Leadership is laying off good, loyal people and offshoring their jobs to India as quickly. Their first chance, they will cut you without warning, while promising your job is safe and give you minimal severance.

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.
