Pros

Great pay and flexible working hours, sabbatical plan, although many people got layoff after sabbatical. Many mid-senior managers are great to work with, however, senior executives changes the direction, which could hurt the company a lot. Hopefully, Arrow can correct itself.

Cons

Recently more layoffs. Management shifted more to satisfy Wall Street instead of customer. CEO has a target of the stock price instead of customer service level, which is ridiculous. bluntly reduce inventory to improve inventory turns will drive customer away, finally will kill the business. It was a solid company, but have a very dim future since Wall street not only killi itself, but also the great company such as Arrow.

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.
