Pros

Great office culture with flexibility of hybrid working. Friendly atmosphere, Mentor scheme available and support. Arrow's future strategy looks promising for how the market is changing. I think it will continue to be a head above it's competition. Progression plans available for those who ask. Top performers do receive verbal recognition of achievements and company shoutouts - unfortunately it is slower to reward monetarily or with promotion. You also have to shout about yourself and connect with the right management otherwise it is easy for achievements and hard work to fly under the radar.

Cons

Pay is below industry standard. USA business is out of touch with the EMEA business, feels like it has catching up to do with market meanwhile puts rules in place restricting EMEA from continuing to do the good things its doing. Not enough account managers. Too many accounts too little people it adds to workload and pressure. Having to act more like a vendor without the vendor rewards and pay.

Pros

Unlimited time off, good work life balance, good benefits, as long as you do your work efficiently and sincerely job position is secured

Cons

Salary should be negotiated well initially. The hike depends on performance and will be very less. There is no stock option for this level. Only base salary and bonus depending on performance of the company
