Pros

Company invests in their people, by training and certifying them. Some of the coworkers are phenomenonal human beings who are always there to support and share their knowledge. Those people should be cherished, especially at this place, because without them there is no other reason to work at CDW. Good place to get exposure to various tech and clientele.

Kontras

Overall, the company is incredibly mismanaged. Since my first day, many years ago, it has been non stop changes on top of changes, changes that take us in one direction, then another change that takes us in a direction completely different for no apparent reason. 3 rounds of layoffs in the last two years, which has really crumbled whatever was left of the culture. I personally don't have any trust in the capabilities of the leadership "team", and their 20 layers of management between the CEO and ordinary workers. They have unreasonable expectations of growth. I've seen the company set a goal to increase profits by an insane amount within a year, when the goal is missed by a percent or two, they'll create a round of layoffs. The lay off emails are just copies of the previous ones at this point. The company has no values, except for one, the almighty shareholder who will direct the actions that affect the whole company based on the stock price. Recently, anything coming from the upper management has been disappointing. Cutting PTO, reducing various benefits, layoffs, taking back the stock grant issued 3 years ago because they've missed their insane growth target. On top of all of that, the company underpays their employees by approximately 20% compared to the market average.

Pros

We all help each other to win unlike any other organization I've worked for. I've never seen an organization support their "coworkers" like CDW has. Management is excellent, supportive and not breathing down our neck but of course have expectations. Leadership is visible. The other day I got off the elevator and the CEO, Chris Leahy, was there which startled me to the point I didn't have words for her. Just be prepared to engage with variety of people often and you'll be successful here.

Kontras

None at the moment. I could always get more pay but not real cons. If I owned a business, I'd model it after CDW in part.

Pros

Some good people still left there, but dwindling quickly. That's really it...the few decent coworkers left.

Kontras

The great culture of the past is gone. Shareholder value is the only important metric now, and tenure/performance don't hold any value anymore to the EC. CDW is a shell of what it used to be for employee satisfaction across the board.
