Pros
Decent benefits, had a lot of autonomy, good boss, but she had no power to implement her own strategy.
Cons
The CEO loves to call the employees "superpowers," but that rings hollow when she and the CFO lay people off every time they miss numbers, which is frequent. The excuses top management comes up with for not meeting expectations are always due to "external factors" like macro economic conditions, slow downs in customer spending, or unforseen economic headwinds. One earnings report 2 years ago they admitted they "didn't see this downturn coming." Isn't forecasting and knowing the industry part of the reason the top level of management is in place? The ability to blame everyone/everything else is what makes CDW's top leadership weak. They never blame themselves, ever, or say "we got it wrong, we need to be better" like a good manager would do. So, you end up with the employees taking the blame and paying the price and a stock price that has sunk recently from $260/share to $188/share. But, somehow the same team keeps managing this Company.
