Pros

Work from home for certain roles.

Cons

Management sub-par. Versus promoting based on caliber and abilities, it is all politics. The cream doesn’t rise to the top at Connection. Extremely behind in technology. Still use spreadsheets for forecasting! Requests for PTO etc are done via paper. Overly-frugal when it comes to travel. We have to take the cheapest flights. That means odd hours, multiple connecting flights. It’s a stale, dying company. All the good talent has moved on. Look at CDW or Insight instead. Threatening non-compete clauses that don’t actually hold water. A very selfish company.
