Pros

A vendor that has a lot of customer, covering a wide of verticals. They also have solid relationship with a large variety of manufacturers which provides you an excellent opportunity to learn.

Cons

The focus is all over the place and the pressure to sell enormous. The company goes through regular reorganizations which make it very hard to keep track of what is important. They also saw themselves as a services organization, however with out a dedicated services, specifically implementation team in Canada. This issue is now hopeful has been resolve with their recent acquisitions.

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.
