Pros

Some flexibility in when and where you can work from. Compensation is about average. They are trying to be forward thinking.

Cons

Raises are pitiful even when they tell you how essential and valued you are. Management operates without ANY consultation with employees - and they really don't seem to have any idea what individual contributors value. Management places zero value on actual experience, they seem to think that a fresh out is just as valuable as an employee with decades of experience.

Appreciate you taking the time to write a review, and highlight that we're trying to be forward thinking. Our #FiveYearsOut campaign has picked up a lot of speed! I would encourage you to speak with your HR Business Partner about what's going on with your team. We want this to be a collaborative place for our employees, and your HRBP can support both individual contributors and managers in achieving those goals.

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.
