      Pros

      Arrow was a great place to learn the distribution business - a skill you can take elsewhere. I guess you also learn how to survive frequent lay-offs.

      Cons

      Lay-offs aside, it's just not an exciting/fun company to work for anymore. The market has changed and Arrow can't seem to cope. Arrow just can't seem to find a way to leverage it's long-standing relationships with customers and suppliers. Corporate pounds on us to reduce inventory, customers take their business elsewhere when we don't have the parts, the suppliers constantly pressure margin. It ain't no fun.

      Future? - no pun intended.

      Pros

      Paycheck - it still cashes! While the future looks dim, the office is in a great location in the Tech Center. Commute from south Denver area is one of the easiest in the city. Generally good working conditions. Before salary cuts and furloughs, pay and benefits were very good. I have faith in the lower levels of management.

      Cons

      Arrow just can't seem to keep pace with our competitors or the market. Under investment in inventory sends customers - who already want to go direct - to competitors. Definitely a case of a 20th century strategy losing the 21th century battle

      A good company to work for that needs some consistency in their practices.

      Pros

      Arrow is a good company with plenty of room for advancement. The local managers are generally very open and honest and seem to have an excellent grasp on work-life balance.

      Cons

      I think the C level executives are terrific, but there seems to be some real issues at the president, vp level. They are constantly shifting strategies and when those new strategies fail, the lower levels take the fall.
