Arrow Electronics Response

Thank you for sharing your experiences at Arrow- it's unfortunate to hear that your experiences here are not ideal. Looks like you're looking to grow, and we are in the middle of creating plans that will allow managers to have conversations with their current workforce about ways to grow internally. This is also gong to ensure that compensation adequately maps onto the tasks and duties performed on a daily basis. Appreciate your patience as we roll this new process out.

Pros

-Slim margins means politics are minimized for the sake of making the right business choices -Employee empowerment is common. -Flexible time-off policies -No-nonsense culture -Base salaries are competitive

Cons

-Slim margins means purchases are highly scrutinized--adequate office furniture, computers, but certainly not cutting edge. -Work in the high-tech industry but has an antiquated compensation policy. No bonuses for employees under director level, paltry 401(k) match has long vesting period, no Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), no stock options below director level. -Has few company holidays.
