Pros

Coming into the current century thanks to new blood, including international talent.

Cons

Eight managers in just over four years, with each one assuming the work staff made the decisions that the new manager may not agree with, and then re-re-revises processes, as the new prophet. Very top down, and you have to defend and justify your job as though you created the situation you're in all by yourself. I've never had such offensive demeaning treatment, and forget about respect or support.

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.
