Power Plays

Did you see Liz's call? Did nobody tell her what Sales and ITS think of "Plays"?

All coworkers launch communication

Can someone translate what Leahy was talking about today? 😳 Prerecorded, no tactical details as to what her "changes" are, nothing. CEO of the year, from the ability to not-connect to the ability to not have a vision. Unimpressed is an... — read more

SMB - Disaster

What is going on in the SMB segment at CDW? I cannot believe how disconnected leadership and sales managers across the entire segment are. The “better together” day at the new McLean office was the cherry on top. Aletha No---n and other big sales... — read more 

Check in on your laid off friends.

I called a person who was RIFed today and he was really down and scared. He was one of our highest performers and received the financial benefits of his sales success. Maybe to much so and he became a target to save money. I agree with everything... — read more

The worst work environment

The work environment is worse here than any other job I've ever had, and I've worked for some cr-ppy companies. I'm not sure if it's just my group or the entire CDW, but the sheer toxicity is unbelievable. It's like you took every bad work stereotype... — read more

Insight Dropped further than CDW

It’s really these old VARS. Recall NSIT bought SADA, a premium GCP provider. That deal is putting the hurting on their numbers and is hugely distracting. They can barely function at SADA it’s so bad. NSIT wrecked SADA faster even than CDW wrecked its... — read more

Thoughts on the recent RIF

Instead of laying off the people who do the work, the executive team needs to look at themselves. If you have that many quarters when numbers are being missed, leadership should be losing their jobs. Instead of spending money on off-sites... — read more
