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.

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.
