Pros

A steady but less than industry average paycheck. And hey, if you meet your quotas regularly, they won't take your bonus back from you!

Cons

Training leaves much to be desired. Resellers will rely on you for expertise and you will rely on your co-workers' which is extremely frustrating for both parties. Luckily there are some good people who work here that are willing to help, but others in different areas of the business might be quick to blow you off or send you in another direction. Former co-workers who have left months ago have yet to be replaced leaving us understaffed and overworked. And then executives will try to spin this in a positive way by displaying how low our operating income is compared to revenue. Still wondering who they were trying to impress with that display of information, I'm sure it was certainly not the Arrow grunts in the room. Management is a bit of a rotating door, no fault of their own. A new position has opened up which has made some outside positions redundant.

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.
