What’s everyone’s best guess on what will happen with the company in the coming year? Good, bad or ugly

What the heck. C’mon Santa!
Top 4 Executives Receive Compensation Agreements through 2029
So apparently the top 4 execs have received extensions of compensation agreements that would pay them through 2029 in the event of separation or acquisition, yet everybody else is being offered what? Three Months? Nothing to see here, move on... — read more

Sales lay offs 2026

A Number of People are Looking to Exit
I was on a meeting earlier where open revolt over the performance review process broke out due to the Director on the Spectrum's inability to not irritate nearly everyone on his team due to his inability to think big picture versus dot I's and cross... — read more
ITS Meeting
Why was Bob Kirby reporting the numbers on the whole business? Is he taking over? Is DV merging with ITS?
Will there be layoffs in Dec or Jan '26?
Has anyone heard if there will be layoffs in Dec '25 or in Jan '26?

Organizational Update (Managed Services) 1600
Anyone have any idea what this is coming at 1600 today? (Tues 11/18/25) Just randomly popped on my calendar, zero context or clues. No message or agenda included.
At least we have the Holiday Bonus coming!!
.....oh that's right, those are no more! Money otherwise spent on consultants, C level events and overpaying "leaving" executives. One small step they could do to try and start to rebuild any kind of culture here....but nope.
Partner Summit
Sure is fun to see all these pics on LinkedIn of Partner Summit. Our fearless leader and the executive minions living their best life while sinking this ship and ruining peoples lives. I hope the steaks at the Golden Steer were amazing.
Consultants, Consultants, Consultants
How much money (and time) has CDW wasted on consultants? Between Deloitte, Bain, and others we have spent millions on companies that don't give us answers, they just get paid to tell us we are doing it wrong (and then leave it to our own people to... — read more
At least layoffs are not happening (for now)
Remember why this site is here? Oh yeah... to report on layoffs. All the people yelling "the sky is falling" seemed to have been wrong. We seem to at least have some stability and can focus on doing our jobs and stop looking over our shoulders for... — read more
Stock Price
I thought all our strategic plans and moves were put in place to help drive the stock price up. So, why is it so far down?
December
We were told more info is coming December. Anybody know exactly what we are being told then?
CPQ??
what a joke
Wow. The stock. Way to go guys!
Demolished. Down $111.00 in 18 months, with buybacks. I guess the investors just don’t trust us yet? Put the guy from Slalom in. Or anyone.
Go to Market 2026??
Can't wait for another effective strategy loaded with buzz words thats been kept secret till now. CDW-G is still struggling from the last go to market idea.
Layoffs confirmed
Yes more layoffs confirmed 4th quarter some notices already went out. Jobs going overseas.
Should we be worried?
Knowing earnings are this week, should we be worried about a layoff coming with it? Part of me thinks it’s not going to be until the new year, but with so many other companies announcing layoffs, I’m not sure if we wait.
More Shuffling in the C-Suite
Sona Chowla exiting, Chris Corley as well, more conglomeration at the top with people leading combined departments. Tariff pressure coming down the pike and probably foreseeing a dip in stock price so those pay packages aren’t as appealing. But don’t... — read more
More layoff coming
Sadly looks like more layoffs coming. Some Procurement and Customer Service roles will be going overseas. Also, more layouts in Sales. Moral is brutal at best and Sr. Leadership has a disconnect with their sales force.
milestone anniversary awards gone?
well.. the good options anyways, gone are the good options like the airline/hotel giftcard, tiffany's jewelry, or even a giftcard to cdw itself (giftcards to anywhere are no longer an option). 10 years at the company (my friend who had their 20 year... — read more
CFA's in Small Business
Dont count unless you have OT Opps attached to them? They are really trying to make it harder to meet metrics arnt they? Seems like a pre cursor for them to excuse you from your role since you didnt hit their "metrics".
Anyone want a good laugh?
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/chris-leahy-chair-ceo-cdw-231100873.html Time for a drink.....
Prior Severance Packages - What was included?
Curious to know what other people got in the past, if they negotiated, and how that process went.
First anniversary of the October 2nd 2024 layoffs
A year passed by after bitter memories of early morning email followed by a mechanical layoff meeting with the VP and HR. There was no appreciation what you have done. The interesting part was I was very active with multiple projects at that time! ... — read more
A Thoughtful Approach to Workforce Reduction
When organizations face the difficult decision of reducing headcount, it’s important to balance business needs with employee well-being. Instead of removing people randomly, one approach could be to create a “wishlist” where employees can voluntarily... — read more
Stock is Tanking
How much longer must we wait before Leahy is fired? She has destroyed the company.
Is it right to lay off a worker fighting cancer?
This place would lay off a man on life support if it meant another dime for the shareholders. That’s the culture. Maybe I’ll be gone soon enough myself, but I sure as he-l hope the suits upstairs get a taste of the same when their time comes. No one... — read more
keep him away
one thing i used to enjoy in corporate sales was the little game of keeping managers away from customers. it was never about being mean, it was about survival. a manager in a meeting could turn a smooth sales call into chaos. they would talk too... — read more

New Job Postings but with Much Lower Pay
After CDW basically wiped out a department and lost years of expertise and experience, they are now re-hiring for those roles, but at near entry-level pay. That is the strategy--layoff experienced coworkers who have been dedicated to CDW for 10 years... — read more
Anyone else get that Workday work satisfaction survey?
Wondering if that's a soft ask/getting feedback for those they think might be open for voluntary layoffs........
Unlike this board, the stock market doesn’t lie
CDW’s is now officially dead money — the stock is down ~25% over the past year while the S&P 500 is up 16%, and Q2 showed revenue up 10% on a layup of a number reset but operating income was down 3% thanks to “margin pressure”. Hard to get excited... — read more
Not a good place to work
Highly suggest not to work for CDW. They used to sell technology to consumers, and now started selling services which they are not good at either. Not a consulting company but a part seller. Don't waste your career time working for or with CDW. This... — read more
Another Round of Layoffs coming to a Ex-Co-Worker near you
Here we go again
My workload increased significantly since the last round of layoffs
I guess this their plan. Get rid of people, give their work to others, threaten they'll be fired if they refuse, profit.
