Pros
The ability to determine your own career path. Many people complain about the amount of pressure put on account managers to perform. I'll admit its not something I relish but it is good for CDW and more importantly me. The push for higher performance will directly effect my ability to sell and then get paid more. So if they are pushing me to do more and I get more out of it how can I complain.
Cons
Its a tough place to try and work the required minimum shift. You really need more time to get the job done right. This would be less of a problem if I didn't live so far from work. That is my decision though so again not CDW's problem. This being said the whole work/life balance is tough for me to achieve.
