Pros

Coworkers were great and always willing to help out. Immediate supervisors were also great.

Cons

Upper management prioritizes revenue over employee well being. Was in a situation with a customer and brought it up to my immediate management who then brought it up to upper management. After letting them know the story one of the managers themselves said "Seems like a toxic working environment." Another manager higher up said that CDW would lose revenue if they pulled me off it. So my choice was go back to a toxic working environment(in the managers own words mind you) or quit. I was extremely disappointed with CDW.

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.
