AVOID!!!!!! Worked for a very successful distributer before acquisition, since then it is a steady decline.

Business Outlook

Pros

If experience in corporate red tape, process and de-motivation is wanted then this is the place for you. Provides the chance to gain experience before moving onto something better.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations for remuneration offered, local staff morale could not be any lower. The culling has begun so job security is negligible. Goal posts are frequently moved with little information or mis-information from management in an apparent effort to limit the number people leaving the company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Fair compensation and good benefits. Formal approach to bonus compensation, annual employee reviews, and succession planning. Have established platforms for solid communication to all employees regarding business conditions and company performance.

Cons

Many of the unique programs that made Arrow different from other companies such as new employee training program in Melville, sabbatical program, and education reimbursement have been eliminated over the last several years. Job security is always in question as targeted layoffs have occurred in many different organizations year after year
