Pros

Very few. There are many good people to work with, and compensation was above average.

Cons

People are treated as a number (headcount or $, you pick). Core values implemented years ago are not being followed by upper management. There is a severe lack of integrity. The Employee Performance Review is a joke. Your immediate manager rates you, but then the ratings are changed by others who have had no interaction with you throughout the year, just to keep within the acceptable range that was handed down from upper management. All perks that showed appreciation for the employees were stopped (Family BBQ, Holiday Party, Sabbatical, Tuition Reimbursement etc.). Wok/Life balance only exists for some, Others have lost many weeks of vacation due to the projects they were on and were unable to take time off.

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.
