Pros

For the most part the people there are great. Very hard workers, dedicated, good to work with. Sales group is strong. Good facilities. Relaxed environment. Pay is competitive, benefits are strong.

Cons

There are some real bad apples in management, especially in the finance groups, they are outwardly hostile towards the sales groups and resent having to support them. Constantly reorg-ing the home office groups and letting go really strong people. Finance has dictated planned headcount reductions in 2016, they are spread out throughout the year so that they are not considered wholesale "layoffs" and therefore the company doesn't have to pay severance.

Pros

I had a very positive experience interning at Arrow Electronics. The management team was supportive and approachable, and communication was clear and consistent throughout my time there. Expectations were well‑defined, and I always knew where to go if I had questions or needed guidance. My coworkers were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with, which made collaboration smooth and enjoyable. Arrow also has a strong support system in place for interns, which helped create an environment where learning and growth were encouraged. Overall, Arrow Electronics provided a well‑structured and professional internship experience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to have been part of the team. I would recommend Arrow to students looking for a solid and supportive internship environment.

Cons

I truly cannot think of much other than IT related hurdles which slowed down progress on my projects initially.
