Pros

It is like any other corporation. If you kiss up enough, or perhaps do well enough, and get lucky, there is some opportunity.

Cons

It can get crazy stressful for the unfortunate who get the wrong accounts. Making $47k to run a $12 million account is just awful. You get a laptop, under the guise that you will only use it if needed is such a ruse. As innocuous as it begins, it will just become more work, for the same pay, and forget about bonuses, even if you are a top performer. Also, do not talk to HR. They are entirely in the pocket of management. There really is no such thing as "confidential input" there. As helpful as you want to be, you will almost certainly become dissatisfied, and end up looking elsewhere for employment.

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.
