Pros

Top-notch IT department - lots of people who really know their area of expertise.

Cons

Negotiate a salary that is acceptable to you when you interview. The annual performance review/merit increase process rarely results in even a 3% salary increase, even for stellar performers.

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.
