Pros

Known company to put on a resume. Former co-workers were hard working and we had to work under some very stressful conditions to get the orders out.

Cons

Company is in a freefall. MDP buyout has destroyed morale for sales, operations and warehouse employees due to executive greed. This company is a prime candidate for the card check legislation pending and desperately needs to unionize. The turnover rate for employees was astronomical. Wages remained stagnent. You had to work for nintey days before your benefits kicked in, so you had to hope and pray that you or your family did not get sick or have a medical emergency in the mean time. Other large companies offer benefits from day one!

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.
