Like we said on our last post, you fed us sh-t again! This is the 2nd bad choice who was made our lead and forced on us in a row.

I heard 11 people left the same team and went to Pallera.

They brought in our new boss from Walgreens and his boss is also from Walgreens. We kept an open mind but he is a ja----s and fake a--hole! And we will have to score our reviews with good grades since they can tell who scored them and how we... — read more 

Joined as a contractor earlier this year and was just let go. Was told it’s a reduction in workforce. I joined because it was a one year contract and they sold me on being converted 6 months down the line. Devastating but life goes on. Just another... — read more 

I'm not a complainer, I'm really not. But look around. Deadlines get missed constantly and nobody says anything. People used to help each other, now they hide from each other. And I've watched two different managers bend rules that I know are there... — read more 

My LinkedIn feed continues to see posts of good coworkers leaving on the own and the posts are increasing in frequency. CDW leadership is ki-ling what used to be a great company (those days are long gone). Leave now while CDW still means... — read more 

Another new Chief Strategy Officer coming in from the outside to replace the last external head of Strategy who was anything but strategic. And shocker... he worked at Bain at one time. How many former consultants do we need? All these external... — read more 

In the last few months, there's been a mass exodus in HI, and sales. Just in the last two weeks HI lost two tenured directors (leaving on their own). Either something is on the horizon I'm not privy to, or people are just tired of the layoffs... — read more 

With Q1 done and dusted, do we think we see more layoffs?

Nobody I know feels comfortable actually using it because you never see anyone else take time. This might be specific to my area, but I highly doubt it. In the end, it ends up being worse than having a set number of days. I'm tired of pretending this... — read more 

When is the most ideal time from a compensation and benefits standpoint to resign from a commissions/bonus sales position? At the beginning, middle or end of a month? Do we get paid for the last month of commissions worked if the payday is a month... — read more 

Nothing ki-ls motivation faster than knowing your every move is being scrutinized. I'm spending more time documenting what I'm doing than actually doing it. I've noticed that many folks have started checking boxes instead of solving problems which... — read more 

The company was a serious competitor in both the job market and PS/MS space roughly 5 years ago. Now it's an absolute mess with disasterous acquisitions, lack of innovation and excess red tape. I give the company 3-4 years before something serious... — read more 

My LMFAO this am… CDW having a collections attorney making threat calls for $400 or so owed on an employee computer purchase… over two years after I was laid off. Money must be tight.

I’m not being paid on accounts I work because I’m being told I wasn’t coded to the account. I asked if they could skate invoices and was told no.

I was hired out of college in 2019 as an Account Manager. It was a great job up until 2023 when the red tape and processes put in place made it too hard to sell solutions our customers were requesting. Imagine having a customer asking for something... — read more 

As a former CDW engineer my observation was that the number of engineers far exceeded the amount of available projects. While I worked with some smart engineers, a majority did not have skills comparable to their pay grade. Too many "that's not my... — read more 

The stock is at a multi-year low today of $118.40. No leadership, poor morale due to no leadership and no competitive advantage. The best and the brightest are jumping ship to competitors or just outright leaving as they are making less money year... — read more 

Any other tenured SMB reps on here also seriously missing the vibrant and fun culture of old? Completely gone at this point and morale at all-time low. Quality of management also at all-time low, zero value provided day-to-day beyond pipeline review... — read more 

Anyone else from Managed Services get axed?

Does anyone have numbers of how many we let go? and what groups

Anyone else hearing customer sat issues and engineer complaints because of how siloed Sirius and CDW is? The integration is a mess and customers are noticing.

I knew a phenomenal engineer who was in Managed Services. He was a CCIE, multiple firewall certs, cloud experience, you name it, and every customer we mutually worked with always praised him. According to him, management ignored his promotion... — read more 

Which groups have gotten layoffs this week? And no internal announcement yet, what's the deal ? Now called Fewer Coworker February since Fast Start Feb clearly didn't work

Heard of a few people being let go. Just wondering if there was a big layoff or only about 5 to 10 people.

As a former senior engineer at CDW I can say without a doubt that the company is in serious trouble. I made six figures basically doing nothing because internal politics prevented me from receiving projects. While it was great for a time, I realized... — read more 

Why aren't we complaining about the laughable 401K match or the limited medical coverage? CDW could contribute $10K to our 401k's today and that would mean more to me than a few days of vacation pay when I leave, or beef up the medical or just give... — read more 

When I was ranking my people, I was specifically told I had to rank on a curve and could only have so many people at the top and had to have a specific percent below a three to allow for lower rating and merit. I didn’t agree with this, but did as... — read more 

I get we're not rolling in the bucks but are your teams getting the usual 3% increases? My manager hinted not to expect anything unless you were a 5 or on a visible deal. Are we prepping for RIF 2.0 or just my team isn't getting raises this year

Once again the stock has fallen off the map, it was a t a yearly low of $119 earlier today and is not moving out of 120 range - so what next for layoffs? The market is down in general but it's hurting us more than others due to our do-nothing... — read more 

Congrats to everyone. Good earnings keeps the Grimm Reaper away.

I wonder how many Amazon employees were encouraged to embrace AI in everything they do, only to have Bezos realize their jobs could be automated?

Another earnings call is just around the corner. How do you think Leahy and Miralles spin Q4, CY 25 and the lowest stock price in 5 years? I'm sure we will hear they cracked the code with the new GTM strategy and "all-weather team". From my... — read more 

I've been pretty much told that I either need to step down and walk away from my role or go through the process of being let go. Is severance even an option?

What is everyone’s expectations on merit increases in the new fiscal? Mine, next to nothing.

The consequences of how layoffs have been handled, the lack of a sound strategy, and the plummeting stock price are resulting in a major loss of talent. Coworkers are leaving for Google, Healthcare Organizations, other tech companies etc. Solutions... — read more 

The restructure is a joke, just stop already. None of you got a new job or increase in pay. Another day another Linkedin Post of I started a new position.

Does anyone know when layoffs will happen in Jan '26?

I came across this article this morning that leads with, "Why Is CDW Not Exciting? Despite the more favorable entry price, we don't have much confidence in CDW." They cite three reasons: 1) Sales growth over the last 3 years; 2) Sales growth... — read more 

Why does my manager never seem to know anything? I ask a direct question about deadlines, budgets, or strategy, and I get a blank stare or vague promises. It's beyond frustrating.
