Pros

People, casual dress, lunches, products are good... cubicles at least have some walls, nice work environment... can learn about industry and get some experience (not a place to stay long term).

Cons

Constant layoffs and lack of pay increases - since I left, all my managers were laid off or quit, co-workers laid off or left to get more pay. Upper mgmt too disconnected and training is just okay.

When the business needs to make cuts, we go through an exhaustive process of reviews, working hard to minimize impact to the fewest number of employees possible, but regrettably, that doesn't always mean we can avoid layoffs all together. That said, we're sorry weren't able to make a longer career here. We aspire to create a culture where employees are truly empowered to manage their careers and make long term, successful careers.

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.
