Business Outlook
Pros
CDW is a growing company that likes to promote within. Relationships with vendors afford opportunities for Account Managers to also move to pre-sales, brand managers, and other careers related to CDW but with partner companies. They encourage sales and technical certifications and outline a path for achieving those certifications. Benefits are good and management genuinely wants Account Managers to be successful, they recognize that we contribute to the growth of the company.
Cons
It can be tough to build a book of business when starting out. There are a ton of vendor trainings which are good in moderation but we seem to get the same ones every few months and some don't necessarily pertain to the segment we're in (SMB, Med/Lar, etc...)
