Pros

There are a lot of ground-floor opportunities in the organization, but you must be willing to put in some effort and not have a sense of entitlement.

Cons

Career advancement isn't always communicated very clearly, and sometimes people that are less qualified and have less experience are promoted before others with much more skill and real-world exposure.

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.
