This is an awful company... Steer clear of this company or work there for a year and then leave before they lay you off - Individual Contributor Avnet Employee Review

Pros

Some of the people are nice, but, not the leadership.

Cons

Awful place to work. The leadership manages from quarter to quarter. They promise change by bringing new talent in, but, they don't support the change. There is a lot of backstabbing and infighting They tend to retain the people who have been there for years and lay off the ones that are brought on recently. They have no class whatsoever

Pros

If you value stability and job security, this is the place to be. Avnet benefits from all the business being routed in from semiconductor companies. Good work life balance.

Cons

Insurance and benefits could be better.
