Pros

Some staff are pretty friendly. The company hasn't been doing bad financially, and is always optimistic, however even Arrow have not been immune to job cuts.

Cons

Such a lack of opportunity for progression, unless your face fits. Salaries are generally poor compared to similar roles in other companies. Job security is poor, many redundancies have been made over the last year, only to be replaced by cheaper staff. The company take the attitude that you are lucky to have a job, therefore they don't need to do anything to keep you happy. Management have little respect for employees. Cost cutting is also rife across the board, at all levels except director-level.

Pros

You will only hear management speaking positively of others and thoughtful in giving guidance and advice. Local management freely gives praise to employees and is always ready to get their hands dirty in day to day tasks. Local management works to create a cohesive and positive work environment. You know management has employees best interest in mind. Smart coworkers with many years of experience.

Cons

Antiquated systems, not enough money spent on infrastructure, no tuition reimbursement which gives the impression education is not valued.
