Pros

Opportunity to grow, respect, diginity and smart co-workers. Flexible work environment and good support from higher management. what else you need ?

Cons

Arrow should invest more in its brand value. Not all your friends will know about Arrow when you start but it is better than some of other jobs out there that have more visibility if you wanna keep moving from one job to another :)

Pros

Company pays for first 2x salary life insurance, AD&D, and short-term disability coverage. Fun, no-nonsense organization. HR and IT stay reasonably out of the way to ensure productivity.

Cons

Hiring and layoffs are driven by quarterly financial results. Promotions based upon old boys club connections and not merit. Competitive compensation exists only for directors and above. Small, awkward cubes for non-managers.
