Pros
The Denver offices have nice gyms and cafeterias. Some of the the people are great.
Cons
It’s been several months since I made the self care decision to leave Arrow. I’ve been diagnosed with PTSD from my time there. This place cares nothing for their technology workers. They have a model of employing people that are highly dependent on that job, whether it be for a visa, medical condition , single income household etc. They then abuse those employees non stop. Work life balance? What’s that? Oh? Going on vacation? Take your laptop and work half time but we’re putting you down as taking your vacation.. You better be ready to work nights and work ends on top of the weekdays, while being chastised for not getting enough done. And if you work 80 or 90 hours to actually get your workload done on time? Well, they just increase your workload. Also . This place seldom backflills. So, if you lose a team member be ready to pick up their responsibilities along with yours but not be given any opportunity to train or learn the new job, while being expected to perform as well as that person did along with your actual job. You find yourself completely drained. You don’t want to leave beauty you’ve made friends with your teammates. You know if you leave, they will have to do your job. You don’t want to do that to them. The kicker in all this? They bring you in with this song and dance about work life balance, great benefits and great bonus structure. In reality there is no work life balance, the benefits are terrible and expensive, the company always has some excuse to not pay out bonuses . If arrow were to pay me all the bonuses that they owe me, I could buy a brand new car. Too bad there is not a legal repercussions for companies that don’t pay out the bonuses that their employees earned.
