Pros

*Many smart, talented employees who truly care about their work. * CDW has strong brand recognition and market presence. * Decent benefits and stability as a large company.

Cons

* Teams are siloed and collaboration is often disjointed. * Too many veteran employees resistant to change, which slows down innovation in marketing technology. * Antiquated processes and corporate politics make it difficult for new ideas or improvements to gain traction. * Process improvements take far too long, limiting employees’ ability to showcase their skills and drive impact.

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.
