Thank you for highlighting what you've found positive about your experience at Arrow! We'd like to remark that we are currently (in 2016) reviewing compensation as well as the job descriptions and roles of the individuals we have here on site. With a new understanding of what skills and experiences our workforce has, we hope creating a newly developed framework will enable managers to have conversations with their team about how to grow and develop both professionally as well as in the organization. Thanks for your dedication to Arrow for over five years! We're so glad you're part of our team!

Pros

Good supplier lines and exposure to various interesting technologies. Fellow colleagues are great people to work with and are some of the best human beings out there. Great product training every 9 months.

Cons

Can be challenging to implement any long term strategies as directions can change very quickly quarter to quarter, month to month, and sometimes week to week. Health insurance benefit is very poor. Commission incentive is not linear and starts to cut in at a high percentage to plan. Moral is low with a sense of confusion. Process and metric can trump over actual results for political reasons.
