Pros

Good Salary Job security Decent Hike

Cons

You might need some time to read this. a) Average age of employees is above 40 b) Average tenuarity is 7 years, because employee here are not capable to upgrade them self and move out c) If you join as an engineer, after working for 20 years odd you will retire as engineer, Top management will never move out d) Before Arrow you might be talking about technology, In Arrow you will only here a speak on Politics, Share Market, NO ONE CARE AND NO ONE KNOW THE TECHNOLOGY. e) US team does cream work, Team in India only does server reboot and patching (even if you are an architect). f) US team can work from home, team in India need to do 9 hour shift and no work from home. g) Being a product company it gives Samosa and Tea as compensation h) If you are below 35 and eager to learn technology you will go in depression within one month and stay in depression till you leave or become like others. A lot more to add but I think this should be enough

Horrible culture and leadership.

Pros

The team I worked with, all great folks to work with. Short drive to work, not much else to speak if.

Cons

Poor leadership Constantly hear "we don't know what we don't know" on all communication with manager. When offering up ideas and opportunities, it got shot down only to come down to panic mode as we get closer to transitioning to a new system and wondering how we can get up to speed with original ideas given months ago. Favoritism is a virus that never goes away No growth unless you are a "friend" of management Unethical practices for quarter-end Very little if any pay increases year on year No growth opportunities unless you're in Denver Layoff are constant Very poor morale

OCS/AIS

Pros

Good people, for the most part.

Cons

The management in AIS is terrible. We lost business and sales tanked and they laid off multiple people, but kept middle managers who do nothing. In the last year, 4 managers have left. The ones that stayed are honestly the worst management team I have ever worked under. When I started many years ago, the managers would be in the trenches with you. Now, they just take constant smoke breaks and call useless meetings.
