Pros

I would say the reason I stay at Avnet is the relationships that I've created with co-workers and customers. I like the chance to work with talented people across the country. I have a good immediate manager who knows that I do my job and he doesn't micromanage me. Unlike some of my other co-workers I'm able to complete my work and leave work at work at 5pm. I'm not required to work on weekends or evenings unless I choose to.

Cons

Senior management tends to be "good ole boys club". Promotions seem to go to the guy who brown noses enough or the girl with the best "assets". People who work hard on a daily bases are expected to produce more with less and not get any kind of appreciation or recognition. But the ones who "slack" but have that one big deal get all kinds of kudos.

Pros

If you value stability and job security, this is the place to be. Avnet benefits from all the business being routed in from semiconductor companies. Good work life balance.

Cons

Insurance and benefits could be better.
