Pros

You learn the world of IT here. Great place to jump start your career and understand how to sell and who to sell to in the IT field. Huge potential to make an extreme amount of money. Lots of team outing to baseball games, dinners, concert, etc.

Cons

The base salary is garbage. Middle management is run by salesmen, not leaders. You need to wait for the top guys on your team to leave so you can have their accounts. Get in good with your manager!

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.
