Pros

In this unstable economy, having a job is a big plus, period. Salaried and benefits are as good as most Fortune 500's. I would agree with an earlier commentator that lower levels of management are employee oriented and fair.

Cons

Unstable, confused strategy, lack of a clear value proposition, questionable senior management, worsening market position. It seems that every time Arrow takes another hit in the market, management resorts to knee-jerk layoffs. Freezing salaries in this market is probably not unreasonable, but laying off valuable contributers is.

We appreciate you taking the time to write us a review on your experiences at Arrow a little over six years ago. The market made 2008 a difficult year for many companies, and we appreciate you sticking with us through the thick and thin. We hope that now, in 2016 as the market has begun to improve, that you see things have started to get better here. Thank you for your dedication to the company and for all that you do!

Pros

Work environment is good. Ideas are respected and considered. Salry compared to other companies is satisfactory. People are competent in their positions.

Cons

Management is new. Salary Hike should be given as there is a big difference in the salaries of the employees working in same profile in other locations

Pros

A company in transition creates many opportunities.

Cons

Arrow ECS senior management has yet to figure out how to reconcile its divisions/acquisitions. This is a complex problem and Arrow is still looking for the answer. But its competitors fare no better.
