Pros

Some good coworkers trying to do their best under pressure. Occasional opportunities to learn on your own if you’re proactive.

Cons

You are overloaded with accounts and tasks without sufficient training or support. Raises are nonexistent, even though the company proudly announces record profits each quarter. Management is poor and lacks leadership skills and could benefit from formal management training. The manager often does not seem to understand their own job or how to effectively lead the team. Well my previous manager G.B. High turnover they overwork employees, then suddenly cut budgets and replace people with cheaper labor (Mexico) Work-life balance is poor; the expectation is to perform like a robot. The company is not trustworthy: they previously laid off a group of Indian workers to bring in U.S. citizens, only to later make U.S. employees train hires from Mexico who are expected to replace them soon.

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.
