Pros

CDW is a growing company that likes to promote within. Relationships with vendors afford opportunities for Account Managers to also move to pre-sales, brand managers, and other careers related to CDW but with partner companies. They encourage sales and technical certifications and outline a path for achieving those certifications. Benefits are good and management genuinely wants Account Managers to be successful, they recognize that we contribute to the growth of the company.

Cons

It can be tough to build a book of business when starting out. There are a ton of vendor trainings which are good in moderation but we seem to get the same ones every few months and some don't necessarily pertain to the segment we're in (SMB, Med/Lar, etc...)

Pros

Work life flexibility Working remotely

Cons

This company has changed and not for the better. I started working here under Edwardson and was blessed to experience Tom Richards. When the new CEO C.L took over the company started cutting back on perks and implementing layoffs. This last one seemed so cold and tone deaf. It definitely left a bad taste. I'm blessed to still be here but I am actively looking at other opportunities. It is so sad what is becoming of this place
