Pros

Friendly atmosphere. High Pressure - but not reflected how people talk to or treat on another. Very casual "company" atmosphere. Descent pay -

Cons

Very political. Smile in your face and say whatever behind your back. There are whisper conversation going on all day - mostly about people being on the "ins" or on the "outs".

We're rolling out a new initiative in 2016 that will let managers have conversations with their team about ways to grow within Arrow and across business functions, if so desired. Thank you for your dedication to our company all these years!

Pros

There is a lot of opportunity to take on projects that allow you to learn new things. Always something happening and changing. Company is in a state of evolution and very innovative with the roll out of the new brand. The company is growing very rapidly and has managed to come out on top in spite of challenging financial and economical climates.

Cons

Conservative company with conservative values around dress, and culture. If you want to grow in the company you have to pursue it and get it, it won't be handed to you. Along with the growth come the challenges of adapting to new ways of having to do business both internally and externally.
