Pros
There are many reasons why I have been at CDW for the past 17 years. Many of them are reasons that you could find at other place but the one that makes this place different is the PEOPLE. Everyone says it but it's different here. Our team has grown exponentially but our culture continues to be a "big family" focused on solving customer problems. We care for each other in order to ensure we bring our best selves to work for our customers. We literally are the living example of Ubuntu - I am because we are!
Cons

None at this current time
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I've just started with CDW but I have experienced how great their onboarding process is. Everyone is involved and coworkers are nice and very professional, They also ensure that you have all the tools that you need to become successful in your work. They provide interactive orientation and the training videos about the company's culture, processes, etc. are extensive. I feel proud to be a part of this dynamic and award winning company!
Cons
I can't think of anything at this point.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great culture and environment, even in a remote setting.
Cons
Pay isn’t great and not a lot of benefit in going into the office besides in person engagements.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great culture, they truly want you to succeed and give you all the resources to do so.
Cons
It takes time. You’ll probably have to wait until more tenured reps leave so you can get their accounts. There’s definitely room to prospect and get your own giant book of business, but the most success I’ve seen is from reps leaving and handing off accounts.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
CDW is a great company to work for.
Cons
Work life balance is sometimes difficult to achieve
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
Management will not micromanage you. Your success hinges on your determination. You take the reins, and as long as you are successful and contributing, they won't say "no". You feel empowered, and you can chart your own ship. CDW rewards those that take that stance.
Cons
Management will not micromanage you. Your success hinges on your determination. If you are waiting for clear guidance and waiting for someone to tell you how to be successful, you will sink. You will be frustrated. You will feel like management is failing you. The whole thing will feel like a mess and unstructured.

Pros
Really good culture, teamwork is really emphasised. Leadership team are approachable and listen. Career progression opportunity’s are obvious and encouraged.
Cons
It’s a big ship, issues are identified and addressed reasonably quickly, but can take a long time to implement.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
The sos community is wonderful.
Cons
The account managers can come off rude at times but they are under pressure.
