Pros

On the surface seems to be organized - the possibility for greatness is there but burnt out management just gives up and does minimum. There seems to be some management who want to stream line but it seems they are thwarted by higher management.

Cons

Lie about hours. Supposed to be an 8 hour 5 day schedule that ends up being 10 -12 hour days with a 6th day thrown in without warning I might add. You never know day to day when you will start or finish. Ridiculous don't have time to do life basics much less see your family and friends.

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.
