Pros

- Arrow provides vacation and PTO slightly better than industry average. - Arrow provides a sizable catalog of educational classes. - Very liberal with travel budgets. - They treat sales people well.

Cons

- Below industry standard pay. - Horrible management and leadership. - Unethical business practices like asking worker to put masonic religious symbols on their e-mails, or providing workers with t-shirts with masonic religious symbols (all seeing eye, NWO winged globe, etc.) - Mass layoffs with no rhyme or reason. - Racist training courses. Every training video shows a helpless black person being victimized by an intellectually superior white person.

Arrow Electronics Response

Thanks for taking some time to share your thoughts about Arrow and raise some concerns about your observations. It's always important to consider how our outward facing messages might be interpreted by others. Please note however, that you are not required or forced to use a masonic religious symbol on your email signature, and that you are welcome to use a more simple email signature of your choosing, should you so desire, which still reflects Arrow Electronics as a brand and our overarching vision to be "Five Years Out."

Pros

Arrow is not the best company I have worked for ; lots of layoffs,but they do a good job at hiring folks that were let go. Raises are often on freeze but lots of money spent on super bowl ads and formula one cars

Cons

Expect 110% but not willing to reward the performance

Arrow Electronics Response

We're sorry to hear your current situation at Arrow is not ideal - we'd encourage you to reach out or escalate to the appropriate parties as necessary to address your concerns. We are also working to establish our brand presence since the recent move to Colorado, and much of this initiative involves educating the public of what we do as a traditional B2B organization.
