Pros

Good mission statement and the intentions are there to fulfill. Pro earth and recycling business motto. Great strides being made to minimize electronics and un-biodegradable items in landfills. Pay is OK once hired. Lots of overtime.

Cons

Mgmt is so overloaded and pressured they can't remain professional through the difficult times. Some in particular are very unprofessional, gossipy and have favorites. At the warehouse level life is OK but the fortune 500 policies allow for zero wiggle room, they are very aware that the job market is tough so they just fire people for anything. Policies of a large company dictate everything allowing no consideration on a personal basis. All decisions on everything from how the floor is laid to how the programs run for processing come from corporate with no employee input. Generally more worried about the big picture to care about the employees making it happen, just feigning concern to keep peace and in business. It is sad but In my experience the office is fend for yourself, don't wait for mgmt to help when you drown. This place is the mirror of the movie office space without the funny stapler guy. :(

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.
