Don't work here! - Anonymous employee Arrow Electronics Employee Review

HR? Who are they? This department is the worst I have seen. They set rules for the company but allow certain departments to do their own thing. The internal recruitment is a very shady area indeed, a lot goes down behind closed doors and no process is followed even though HR sets the processes. Managers can offer people jobs without any formal advertisement or interview which means other people miss out and guess what, HR advise you are supposed to advertise jobs and interview all candidates but certain departments/managers can do whatever they like. And they think all of this goes unnoticed, how stupid must they think we are! Management could not care less about it's employees. There are no staff functions throughout the year yet other entities of Arrow are always out together and creating a bond within their teams - I find it very funny, a multi billion dollar company and they can't afford to treat their staff for their hard work and contributions throughout the year, how pathetic! The communication between departments is virtually non existent. There is no morale here and the atmosphere is awful. I hate everything about this company. Do yourself a favor...work somewhere else, you will be making a big mistake if you join this company.
