Thread regarding CDW layoffs

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 also had the same options) gets you the lovely options of: a two way radio, a dvd player, a golf club set (junior sized only, there is also a singular golf club..), and my personal favorite: a paperclip necklace.

So anyone approaching their milestone anniversaries get ready for those hot ticket items. "You Deserve IT!" the pamphlet says, but I'm pretty sure they left out an 'sh' somewhere..

It's cute that you are even still talking about this as the company repeatedly disrespects the majority of the workforce and cares so little about an award like that. But worry not! I'm sure the survey feedback will be wonderful and the management can continue to ram work and changes down our throats for months and months to come!

@h9 I know this is "pie-in-the-sky" thinking, but I would put in my engagement surveys that instead of catalog junk, give me some stock.

The Tiffany’s necklaces have all been molded into trophies for Leahy to sp-t shine in her office when she’s not playing with her daughter’s hair samples.

There are no more milestone gifts because everyone is either laid off or quits before they hit their next milestone

The OLDTIMER is still here and now at the top. The Bulldog didn't run him off but he lost his daddy and now he doesn't have a voice and was silenced fASt.

Here you go again. Entitled little passive-aggressive crybabies whining about what the world owes you. Millennials for sure. The cockroach generation.

@q0

@nx must be an executive on this sinking ship if they’ve survived 25 years at the dub and are touting “hundreds” of dollars in awards to make us look like a company that gives a sh-t about their employees. Well played! 👏🏻

They are very excited for such sh-t options as they have thousands of (declining) CDW shares to play around with while the ones who do the actual work (sales and engineers) get let go.

@nx hundreds of dollars???? 25 years should be a $2K bonus, minimum.

I think I got a crock pot or something.

Whatever it was, it made me want to quit.

Happy with my 25 year gift options, including Blackstone grill, Yeti Cooler, Weber smoker, Bose speakers, Bose headphones, yes there is one golf club but it's a Cleveland driver - all options are worth hundreds of dollars.

Well apparently, the new 10/15/20 year award is a call with our manager and HR and a swift kick in the a$$ right out the door. 👋🏻

Yeah, I picked out something for mine a few months back, just looked for whatever had the highest resale value on ebay and sold it. Just give us a bonus, no one wants cr-p from a catalog.

I worked at a company once where they gave you this catalog of super over-priced items to choose from. I'm pretty sure the company who ran the catalog just drop shipped the stuff from Amazon. Anyway, they asked me for feedback once and I told them while I appreciated the gesture, I thought they were getting ripped off and they'd do better just giving Amazon cards as gifts. They actually took my advice and ditched the catalog company. CDW should do that or just give folks a bonus and ditch the cr-p no one really wants.

The ‘prizes’ were mostly castoffs. Just discontinued stuff or old versions they just wanted to get rid of. Can’t say I was ever impressed. Anybody else remember the year they mailed out that stale caramel corn for Converge? Yeah, bring IT.

Maybe buy your own stuff with the paycheck you got for 10 years.
