      Pros

      Building a network of collegues that will leave CDW and go elsewhere has it's benefits in the long run when you leave (or at let go).

      Cons

      Poor management, poor compensation, dial for dollars mentality, CDW first, then customer, poor integration of departments, advanced technologies department doesn't fit the CDW model. Management's unwillingness to change the internal processes to compensate for different business models (i.e. Berbee acquisition - services() makes it difficult to provide good customer service.

      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.
