CDW Corporation

"Managers matter and so does the department you are in"

"Great culture. The people make it a great place to work."

"Empowerment and support is readily available to enable you to succeed"

"It's a fair work environment. I get support and understanding. They value my knowledge and dedication."

"The culture is dictated by your direct manager the most. When you have a wonderful boss (like I currently do), you reap the benefits of their support in work/life balance."

"Strong women leaders setting the example for good work life balance "

"Lots of opportunities to develop supportive networks inside and outside our your team"

"The culture is amazing - there are so many women in leadership and resources, both for those trying to advance careers as well as just in everyday policies (like reminding people to take vacation time)."

"CDW is a great place to work! I’ve felt empowered and am allowed to be authentic. "

"Great place to work. Supportive leadership, ultimate flexibility and culture."

"People genuinely care about each other, all the way from the top down. My manager supports me professionally by letting me lead and try new things. She also understands the complexities of working full time with young kids. I couldn't find a better balance and culture anywhere else."

"There is a decent amount of opportunity for women, but some teams are better than others with diversity and respect. There are also a lot of competing cultures to deal with once you are there. There are some fantastic managers if you are lucky to have one of them that will support you, although who you report to could change anytime. "

"There are a lot of resources for Women at the Company and a ton of support from men and women alike throughout the company. It's a great place to work and still be able to manage your life outside of work."

"Coming into the Tech World, you assume the company is 80% men. While it is still a very male dominated company, it is female led for the first time. This allowed for a lot of heart and compassion during Covid. In my tenure, I've watched more women get promoted, and the internal networking groups like WON are very helping in linking us to others. Many of our top performers in Sales are women. We have many opportunities for mentoring, personal development, and even mental assistance. Anybody, male or female can grow within CDW."

"CDW is a great company but I am surprised that their benefit program is so sub-par for such a large organization. Improvements there would go a long way to help with employee retention."

"Its a great place to work from all aspects - flexibility, leadership, culture, opportunities, fair pay/benefits."

"While the Leadership team has expectations for a strong performance, they give me the resources I need to achieve. They also respect my work/life balance and are quick to recognize accomplishments. "

"Both the men and women at CDW help build each other up. It is a great culture and I couldn't see myself anywhere else. "

"If you're planning to have a baby, stay away! Maternity and paternity leave policies are both terrible. CDW only provides the bare minimum 12 weeks FMLA and only 6 weeks of it are paid."

"I've been here 15+ years and have seen the company, leaders, and coworkers evolve in ways I never thought I'd see. The company treats coworkers from all backgrounds equally and everyone will always have a fair opportunity for growth and promotion, but you have to work for that opportunity and grab it when it is in front of you. There may be other companies that offer more in the base salary or more in the bonus packages, but I stay because of the culture, because of the soft benefits, because of the network of amazing people I've built and because of the security blanket that comes with working at CDW - I feel safe, comfortable and appreciated in ways that don't show up on a pay stub which for me matters most. "

"CDW empowers women in all roles, CDW is inclusive and supportive. There are many female leaders including our CEO. I feel all opportunities are equal and I am not treated differently because I am a woman. "

"Great Female leaders throughout the company. Great place to see women grow and be network with other women."

"For the past 14 years, while having a successful career, I've been able to balance raising two boys. I've had the flexibility to take care of family when needed."

"It has been one of the most fulfilling and rewarding experiences working at CDW. I have not only learned so much about the tech industry, various functions and their responsibilities at CDW, but most importantly, I've learned so much about myself. CDW has given me the opportunities to grow and develop professionally and personally, and that is something I will carry with me for years to come! "

"Great company to work for - communicates to coworkers, and amazing leadership"

"CDW does a fantastic job of supporting their female co-workers. They provide an inviting company culture to support the careers of their female co-workers."

"Equality is promoted and women are treated with respect. There are also 'women in tech' resource groups to join"

"People listen and I feel empowered to share new ideas and opinions. I have opportunities to learn and grow in my role as well."

"Great place to launch and grow your career! Strong network of leaders and coworkers that invest in your development and want to see you succeed. "

"The CDW culture is amazing and like no other. Everyone from leadership and under are willing help and mentor. There are lots of opportunities to network and grow your career. Work-life balance is fantastic as well. This is the best company I have ever worked for."

"I feel empowered to try new ideas, implement new programs and test my hypotheses on a daily basis. I feel like my job is enriching and that I have the opportunity to impact others' lives in my role. I love that CDW gives all its employees a voice, and I look forward to going to work every day!"

"Women are given equal opportunity and are being promoted to leadership position. Good support for women employees from Sr Mgmt "

"It is inspiring to see other women in leadership across the company especially on our executive leadership team. I love being able to mentor and support other women to take on leadership roles here at CDW. "

"act like a man if you want recognition and equal pay - throw and/or bounce the toy balls the vendors give out as much as possible, talk obnoxiously loud about your biggest deals so that everyone within 50 feet can hear you; and laugh at the unfortunate souls that don't happen to be you. Oh and brag as much as possible about your mansion, your boat and your maserati - again obnoxiously loud so as many people as possible hear you. Then hit them in the head with the vendor balls."

"There is a culture of women supporting women, both through our business resource groups as well as in the business. There are opportunities for development and mentoring and room to grow."

"CDW has been a great place to work. The number of women in senior leadership positions is amazing, and I feel like that trickles down through the culture. I feel like lots of people can succeed here, and I have never been made to feel uncomfortable in any way about needing some flexibility to take care of kids, etc. I often see others (both men and women) work various hours to pick up kids/take them to practice or just beat traffic. "

"CDW is an amazing place to work! I'm surrounded by incredible, inspiring and powerful women throughout the entire organization in a variety of different roles. CDW's WON (Women's Opportunity Network), plans and hosts incredible events connecting women to other women in leadership roles within CDW, creating a network of mentorship and support. Your ideas are heard and your input is valued. For such a large corporation, it still feels small in that you can have real influence within your role, and department to impact the overall business. They support career advancement, work-life balance, mental and physical health and so much more. I love CDW and the team I get to work with."

"CDW is a great place to learn and grow. The opportunity to have a successful and fulfilling career is here and ready for the taking."

"The glass ceiling does not exist here. Opportunities are only limited by what constraints you put on yourself."

"After 19 years at CDW it is still an amazing place to work. The organization is committed to investing in coworkers and developing diverse top performing talent. Our organization is run in part by amazing women who are helping change the tech industry in a positive way and the overall culture at CDW is inclusive. Our Women's Opportunity Network and other Business Resource Groups allow for every person to be a part of something more than their job role and to connect and network with others throughout the organization. "

"Leadership invests in developing all coworkers to help them advance in their careers. "

"Over the past year and a half CDW has shown such strong support for all of our coworkers, from the pandemic to race issues. The executive team has addressed issues head on and embraced and expanded our diversity and inclusion efforts. They have truly shown that the health and well-being of our coworkers is important to them. "

"CDW has been wonderful, especially during this time of COVID. I came back to work after maternity leave in the beginning of COVID and the support I received was amazing and continues until this day. "

"CDW is a great work place to be your own authentic self. We have business resource groups, one particularly the Women's Opportunity Network where its a great place to meet other individuals in the organization. "

"CDW sees you,listens, and advocates for you as a women in technology!"

"CDW does a great job of prioritizing its coworkers. There are lots of women in leadership positions and plenty of ongoing events and discussions that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. "

"Our CEO is a woman and that’s pretty motivational as is."

"You will feel welcomed and valued! Management is always open to new ideas. Also, if I need to work around a personal appointment, I have the ability to do that. If you have questions about how to do something, there is always someone on your team or even another team to help you."

"CDW is great. And, the mangers deeper in the company are primarily white males and have little awareness of their privilege. But, they are nice. For tech, it is pretty good - the masculine domination is everywhere and CDW is a bit better (but the bar in Tech is low). "

"Its an amazing environment where I always feel supported to become a better leader, mentor, and person. I consistently feel challenged by the projects I am given in order to complete my long term goals. And most importantly, I feel seen. "

"I just joined a few months ago, but I already feel supported in both my professional AND person growth. Even virtually, I am surrounded by inspirational women leaders (included our woman CEO!!). I cannot recommend CDW enough, especially in a male-dominated industry."

"CDW has a coworker first culture and will always do what they can to take care of their employees. Feedback is taken seriously and management has goals pertaining to their team's engagement and work life balance. "

"You can do more and go further than you thought you could have."

"Working women run the company. We have equal representation at the highest levels. Diversity and inclusion are part of each and every thought process."

"I have had the pleasure of meeting some very influential women at CDW that make me proud to be their coworkers, and encourage me to continue to do my best for myself and the community of women around me!"

"In the recent years the company has been focused on helping promote women into leadership through various programs and supportive ways. The recent changes in the EC and SVP level are an example. Understanding its work life HARMONY and not a true balance will help set realistic expectations for you. Sometime you give some, sometimes you take some. Opportunities are available for you to capitalize and feedback is valued. "

"CDW really is a great place for women. Not only is our CEO a women, but there are a lot of other women in senior roles. They truly make you feel valued for simply being a coworker. "

"CDW have provided me many opportunities to grow within the organization. I have built relationships with coworkers that will help me succeed in my future endeavors!"

"Our company is decently focused on promoting women right now. It's tough, because it's an industry that typically doesn't have a high female population. However, if you show you can work hard and learn, the company absolutely recognizes that and does what they can to help you move up. "

"I have spent a better part of my career at CDW. For most of this career, I have had flexibility which has allowed me to not only be a great coworker but also balance my obligations as a parent. "

"There are several leaders and groups to support women at CDW. The important piece is getting connected."

"I love CDW - specifically CDW's Professional Services ITS Group. I feel valued, impactful and respected. This is exactly the type of place I always wished I would find. It feels better than "just work". I really feel like I contribute here, and I feel a sense of fulfillment almost every day. "

"CDW has strong female leadership and a culture that promotes diversity"

"The work life balance in our department is awesome. We are like a family and are there to help each other succeed. "

"It is truly a culture of making things happen, which means you must speak for yourself and achieve what you want. CDW provides tons of resources, and you need to ensure you take advantage of them. "

"CDW promotes and supports women across all levels of the organization from entry-level to senior leadership. We have endless reources that lift women's voices and encoruages opportunites for women to grow their carrer and foster relationships along the way. "

"Looking at our co-worker hierarchy, our CEO is a woman followed by 7 other inspiring women. My manager is a woman. My closest friend here is a woman that I am proud to have watched be promoted twice in 4 years. I am treated as equal by all my peers, no matter gender, race, age etc. I have been enabled to grow in my career, speak up and balance my life as I see fit to thrive personally and professionally. There is no greater place to work than CDW. "

"CDW has been a great place to develop myself and my career. There are so many supportive women in different areas of the business that are willing to sit down and have a chat, regardless of what the topic is. "

"There are some strong female leaders at the top of the organization; though the mid-level leadership is sparse on women. The company recognizes this and has been working to promote and higher more women, there is still a ways to go."

"CDW is very employee focused and really does strive to find the best ways to serve our customer and their employees. "

"We have amazing benefits. CDW paid for IVF and I have 3 beautiful children today because of it. Also, I have a lot of flexibility and there is great culture here. They go above and beyond to make everyone feel included. "
