Pros

Decent starting point for a career in tech sales as you run the whole sales cycle from start to finish. Another positive is the free gym and snacks/beverages.

Cons

My time on the ADR team at Arrow has been overshadowed by issues of inconsistent Mid-Market account distribution, leading to demoralizing favoritism. Despite C-level praise, raises remain elusive, forcing many to juggle two jobs. The absence of a hybrid schedule for ADRs, unlike C-levels, adds financial strain due to gas prices. With low base pay and unequal commission opportunities, transparent policies and proactive leadership action are essential for a fair and collaborative work environment. 1. Favoritism: Discrepancies in account distribution lead to some enjoying lucrative opportunities while others struggle without making commissions. 2. Selective Accountability: Varying standards for call metrics create a sense of inequality among team members. 3. OTE Discrepancy: The disparity between promised and actual earnings is a widespread concern. 4. Resistance to Feedback: Efforts to provide constructive feedback are met with resistance. Addressing these issues, particularly favoritism, and implementing transparent policies are crucial steps towards creating a more equitable and supportive work environment.

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.
