I hate this leadership and I hate this fu--ing company. Thanks for nothing.

These are not layoffs. They are mass firings of low talent hangers-on or irrelevant departmental deadweight that pretty much needed to go and probably wont be missed. Like MD or AR, or your coworker who never quite got it. Why does CDW do it this... — read more 

CDW let go of roughly 750 employees, with zero prior notice. I know that many are not getting 60 days of pay. Is this a violation of the WARN Act? Or is there some loophole related to remote work and multiple offices that CDW is able to use as a... — read more 

I heard that was the next group after TS was booted out.

Opening a thread to provide insights to those who have been impacted by the latest RIF at CDW. By now, we should have received our severance packages and the clock has begun for the review. Very clearly in the documentation, it states "you have been... — read more 

Half my team's gone. Who's expected to do their work? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say those of us left.

Sad thing is, even knowing this round is over I can't truly relax or be happy I survived, since we all know there'll be more before the end of the year. Working with the constant threat of layoffs is not good for our health, mental or physical... — read more 

Most of the people I know are 40 or above, and just a few in their 30s. That doesn't sit right with me.

what a joke, she blames a fast-changing "AI-first world" and the need to "invest in high-return opportunities" for wiping out 700+ jobs, but she forgot to mention who those high returns are actually for. Just two months ago, CDW’s board authorized... — read more 

I've seen ten posts today and they all ended the same way with even the same emojis used a bullet points. Odd they all have the exact same format. Example below. About me & what I’m looking for: 💼 I’m looking for Account Representative, Account... — read more 

Many of you may not know Tom, he was the CEO before Chris. He was a brilliant guy who focused on winning and judged you on performance and performance alone. Tom was no BS, and had the unique ability to completely destroy you with just one... — read more 

A friend from EBO said his team's manager gave them an all-clear. Is this company-wide?

I was performing, loyal and zero drama. I kept my head down, did my work and made great money for CDW. You? You are not performing, you are not keeping your head down, and you are bleeding cash for CDW. You are a disaster who ruins lives and an... — read more 

In the present leadership era, apparently it’s perfectly acceptable to drop a bo-b right before a holiday, and then make sure all VPs show out of office for the rest of the day so as not to be bothered by the peasants. Meanwhile, I’m sure they are... — read more 

I call bullsh-t. This is all about money and nothing else. Why else would they get rid of one of our best performers with impeccable record and decades of experience?

Basically, are we safe yet?

Is it the same as the last time? No changes?

If you are reading this, and you received the non-descript meeting invite from Coworker Services, I am so very sorry. Which department(s) are impacted - asking so we can rally around those being laid off.

Any word on the teams affected?

The rest of the tech world is now concerned about AI and its expense. Tokenmaxing is over. Industry is pivoting back to people. But what is CDW telling the street? That they will save 200M by using AI. Not likely, and late. What is CDW telling... — read more 

Get ready for independence from CDW day. If the past is an indicator of the future, Tuesday or Wednesday will be the day. If your boss or Director is ignoring you, that’s your number one sign to pack it up.

Walking around the place with so much positivity and high hopes. None of them have any clue that the rest of us are bitter, angry and mostly dead inside because this company su-ks.

Just heard the Bellevue and Portland offices are being closed at the end of July? Any other offices affected or just those two?

Why are there so many Sirius sellers leaving, or left, the company? CDW is hemorrhaging all the 20 year customer relationships? As a CDW seller, I was assigned a lot of these accounts, that came with very high quotas and they don't want to do... — read more 

CDW isn't what it used to be. Worse culture, worse pay, with constant cuts on top of it. So why do you stay? For me, it's health insurance. That's the only reason.

I'm approaching 50 and would like to work another 15 years before retiring. Given the current environment, I'm concerned that if I were laid off in my 50s, finding a comparable role could take much longer than it would today. Would you recommend... — read more 

Where can I find that info?

Hopefully there won't be any layoffs in the near future, but there are some things you can do to be prepared in advance in the event you are impacted by a layoff. Do not keep anything personal on your work PC. Usually, when you are laid-off, you... — read more 

The big list is being finalized as we speak. Get your resumes dusted off, your lawyers dressed up, your data downloaded and your bathing suits on for a nice, forced summer vacation. Much Love, Boston Consulting Group and your Failed Leadership

The Wall Street Journal evaluates how leading US corps stack up in 6 areas: AI readiness, innovation, talent readiness, financial fitness, resilience and agility. CDW ranks #145 overall with an Overall Score of 54.6, placing it 11th out of 21... — read more 

I wonder if any leadership reads anything on this site (director and above)? I do see various financial analyst articles about CDW touch on info that was mentioned here. I also noticed Google AI include some of the info from posts on this site as... — read more 

I feel sad, guilty and burdened. I didn’t choose HR as a career to ruin lives or to help a greedy, mismanaged company do bad deeds. This is not meant to scare and I am fearful to post as I am under NDA but I need to help if I can. In a few weeks... — read more 

The head of tragedy. The sultan of swirl. The iron lung. Fired.

I'm new here and I'd really like to know if this is really an expectation?

Was just recently alerted to a former coworker who posted to LinkedIn about being let go. This wasn't the normal LinkedIn post just letting people know about the employment change. This coworker was fired for asking an "Unprofessional" question... — read more 

Great job Chris and team. Still poor fundamentals but have to celebrate the good moves too! In at 98.

I have noticed a pattern that is driving me crazy. The people who are best at dodging work and shifting their responsibilities onto others seem to be the ones getting promoted. At the same time, the dedicated employees burn out and leave, and... — read more 

Have to give credit when due. Our stock rebounded last week. Is that a sign of recovery or only one week of positive gains. I am not a financial guru so I am asking.
