Pros

there are no longer any pros to working at Arrow if you don't live in Colorado.

Cons

The CEO of the company is only interested in bringing jobs from across the U.S. into Colorado to meet his commitment to the state for tax breaks. The company does not care about it's employees.

Thanks for sharing your experience. We have experienced a lot of transition last year, as we relocated our Accounting and Finance functions to the CO offices. Employees in the Melville facility were offered the opportunity to relocate to Colorado if they desired. We are looking forward to this next chapter for the company.
